Youth bank connects Europe

Lukáš počas svojej EDS blogoval, dávame do pozornosti najmä prvý článok, kde opísal dôvody rozhodnutia vycestovať na EDS – https://lukas1987tt.blogspot.com/2018/02/1diel-preco-lebo.html

a posledný diel kde zosumarizoval túto skúsenosť a odporúčania o EDS pre ďalších – https://lukas1987tt.blogspot.com/2018/03/11-diel-grandiozny-zaver.html
