Carla L. (European Parliament)

Picture of Carla

“When I first arrived in Luxembourg in 1987 I confess that I did not understand how a ‘Grand-Rue’ could be so ‘cosy’ :). However, I soon realised that it perfectly matched the country where I was about to live - the pleasant feeling of proximity, where public administration is accessible and people can actually feel at home, irrespective of their nationality. This is precious, especially in times of uncertainty and incitement to hatred. I do feel at home in a multicultural country that encourages integration instead of assimilation – here you can easily keep your own traditions while learning about new ones.”
