I'm in high school in an Eastern European country and I'd like to study for a bachelor's degree in Translation in Western Europe. I was told that it would be good to have passion projects related to my field, especially because in my country there are very few competitions related to languages, and they're corrupt so my chances are very low, even if I have some knowledge. Basically, I need some extracurricular activities, but I don't know what to do except for volunteering, taking exams like DELE and maybe gaining some work experience when I turn 18 (I'm 16 and I found a place where experience is not required).
I have some ideas like blogging about learning languages or creating my own conlang, but that's more related to linguistics. They don't really study languages during the program; it's not the main subject there. It would be good to have something directly related to the program, but what I've mentioned seems so little to me. Is there anything else I can do? Also, especially regarding interpreting, because I don't imagine myself in translation as they pay too little there. I want activities in both areas, but wouldn't it be better to have something in interpreting? Anyway, I would appreciate any ideas.
