CELA is a great opportunity to acquire a wide knowledge of what's going on in European literature, to share my work with other writers and literary professionals and receiving important feedback and guidelines to continue growing as a writer.

It brings European countries closer and allows for the literature of the countries envolved to be more recognized by their value.

It gives me the possibility to read new texts by emerging authors and translate them, which creates a very strong connection between me as a beginning translator and these authors.
