filipa portrait
»My parents are separated and I'm living with my mother, who works as a saleswoman. She earns less in her work, due to the crisis. My father is an entrepreneur and he's currently working abroad so he can earn more.
I feel compassion for those who have nothing to eat or lost their apartment, but personally I can't do anything.
I think, the Portuguese have set their sight too much on the past and they are mainly thinking of earlier times.
Now, we should recognize the problems and try to rethink our attitude.
Maybe I'm going abroad to establish more security for myself. I would stay here, only if there were changes.«
— Filipa, 16 years old, high school student
