/0 Comments/in , , /by

Our beloved Stefania spoke on November 16 as part of the big concert in Amsterdam, Het Grote Songfestivalfeest, on euromix, answering whether we will see her soon at Eurovision, about her experience at the contest in 2021, but she also sent a message to Israel.

Stefania, who brought Greece back to the top 10 after 8 years in 2021, is looking forward to being at the competition again, while she is very grateful to her whole team for this achievement.

“At Eurovision 2021 I felt very honored that I was chosen to represent Greece at Eurovision. I am also very grateful and proud of my team. We did it, 10th place!

Having grown up in the Netherlands, but also writing a successful course in the country’s musical affairs, Stefania does not rule out representing her country of residence in the future.

I really want to go back! But who knows…this year it won’t happen anymore, it’s too close, but I’d love to do it for the Netherlands. I represented the Netherlands at Eurovision Junior, so it would be nice to represent them at Eurovision as well.

Sending her own message to Israel and her fans there, Stefania said:

I love you in Israel, I hope to see you soon, kisses!
