Sport can be a way to meet people, build friendships, and find a sense of belonging, especially when you're starting over in a new country. In this episode of FS Talks, we sit down with Eryn, founder of Sportunity, a Luxembourg-based association that brings refugees and local communities together through sport, and Mykyta, one of its participants. Through their experiences, we explore how something as simple as a group hike can open the door to new friendships, help overcome isolation and create a sense of community. Our conversation also goes beyond sport to reflect on what it means to feel connected to others, the importance of having a place where you belong and how everyday encounters can gradually make a new country feel more like home.
