 I believe that by working hard and by helping others, united, we can do anything we want, even making the world a better place.

I'd like to describe Rebeka Starin as a charming, charismatic "Rebel". She had a deep rooted need to inspire and motivate change in the world and make it a better place.

Rebeka, what would be the three words that describe who you are? 

Optimistic joyful and outgoing

What has the EMSA Tbilisi experience been to you?

I really enjoyed it and at the same time I believe it benefited me and everyone else as well. It helps us bridge gaps and make the world better place. 

Do you have any special talents or interests that you would want to talk to us about? 

I like to try new things, especially sports and adrenaline things. I play football and volleyball in the summertime, wake-board and I also surf.

What influences or motivates you to be who you are and what you do for EMSA?

Well, who am I exactly? And not knowing the answer to that question I simply can't give you an appropriate answer to your question. 

What inspires me.. It's the fact, that I know that I can actually make a difference by participating in such events as SA. I strive for the better, fairer, equal world (Europe), that is without stigmatization and prejudice. That endless drive for the better world and well, in this case, 'only' the Europe comes from seeing how much work and efforts other people, my friends, put into it and the change that they are making. I believe that by working hard and by helping others, united, we can do anything we want, even making the world a better place. To conclude my inspiration, Ghandi said:” Be the change you wish to see in the world”.

What would you look back and reflect upon at EMSA 16 SA?

Everything! The workshops, experiences and the opportunity to meet FMO's from all over Europe. 

What was Georgia to you?

The experience was quite unexpected. I was surprised! It's a beautiful country.
