What makes you a European?
The place where I’m born and the places where I’ve been living as much as the culture in which I grew up and the languages I share with others. Also the climate and fauna and flora I’m used to.
What would Europe in your imagination be?
Europe would be organic and would respect the nature, never working against it; it would provide evrybody with good food; it would cherish all the commons and defend them against profit for Big Corporations; it would have no more Frontex, no more borders and would let the people choose where they want to live; it would be fair und ethical, would take care of the cultural diversity and of the many languages (not only English!!!); Europe would be a pioneer of peace in the world and pioneer of change for the better of all. It would have only good mobility and far less cars and trucks and stinky vehicles.
Can you describe one day in future europe?
Getting up in the morning with birds’ singing. No more traffic jam to hear, people have interesting jobs they like and when they don’t want to work, they also have something interesting to do, they have time to take care of their kids and of others, they do many things together in open communities, where they are sharing a lot of stuff, so they don’t need to use so much resources as we do yet. And they have time to learn interesting things too.
