an unforgettable reunion
The grand departure – The dream of studying in France
Ophélia and Lionel are two ambitious students from Benin who have chosen to study in France.
Ophélia’s Story
Passionate about new experiences, Ophélia loves relaxing on the beach with friends, but above all, she enjoys discovering new cultures and taking on new challenges. Now studying law and economics, she moved to France, a country that holds a special place in her heart—not just for the language, but also because part of her family lives there.
Lionel’s Story
Lionel is deeply interested in mathematics, science, and physics. With an outstanding 18.09 average on his baccalaureate, he earned a prestigious scholarship and pursued his studies in France at the University of Bordeaux. Though far from his loved ones, he remains strongly connected to his home country and hopes to one day return to contribute to its development.
A heartwarming homecoming
After 18 months away, Ophélia and Lionel return to Benin, bringing joy and tears to their loved ones in a truly unforgettable reunion. With the support of Brussels Airlines, they finally embrace their families in an emotional and long-awaited moment.
