My Europe - Latvia

My Europe / Mein Europa

'My Europe' is an interactive digital series of events that invites its guests to discover Europe.
How does it work? It's simple: We talk to young people from various countries about Europe and their personal topics of interest. The topics are as diverse as the speakers and can range from current political and social developments through culture and science to one's own commitment to greater tolerance or solidarity. In addition to the given topic, all participants can also vote live on other topics and ask questions on the evening itself.

On 15th May, Adelina Edelhoff will take the audience on a virtual journey to Latvia

Adelina Edelhoff was born in Riga, Latvia. She is finishing her bilingual high school diploma this year in Germany. Nevertheless, she is not only studying for her final exams but staying connected to her Latvian culture. On the one hand, she knits most of her time, takes photos that capture special moments, and on the other hand she helps to educate others on Latvian values and traditions such as the “Latvian Song and Dance Festival”. Her general interests are the European identity, creative work and traveling as much as possible.

The moderator is Henri Schlund, freelance journalist.
