@hpod16 EU countries do their best to keep the EU budget tiny, costing each of us a cup of coffee a day, which results in the inability to finance what could be the coolest 🇪🇺 rite of passage: every single EUropean who turns 18 could automatically get their #DiscoverEU Interrail pass in the mail. No quizes, no application, no draw.

But we refuse to properly finance the EU, so now the first contact of hundreds of thousands of teenagers with a formal process of their Union is a rejection email.

#DiscoverEU is the EU initiative that gives free #train travel passes to 18 year olds. In 2025, around 76k train passes were made available, split across two rounds. Applicants had to submit an application and do a little quiz on the European #Youth Portal.
When did the very first round of Discover #EU take place?
