Question 1: K.

Who did you Call?


I called Syria—my family. My father my mother my brother—sisters. In Syria.


Why?


Uh, it's like 10 days I do not call them, and there is a lot of problem there, in the village. They are staying in the village and—it's war. You know about Syria. So يعني I should call every day to see how they are. But unfortunately not all the time I can connect them. It's very difficult that telephone num—you know the internet, the electricity, there is no—in this area.


Would you mind telling me a little bit about them?


Um, they are the two boys one girl, like uh, 11, 13, and 8 years. Uh, they are [living?] for nothing in the village. They are waiting what will happen —the situation, because there is no way to go out, there is no way to set—there are, just waiting uh .. the people to stop killing them.


How did you end up apart?


[…] Because I'm working, and they cannot come here. It's so difficult for a Syrian to come to the UAE, there is no Visa. And actually, I have work, and they was here .. before, like 3 years ago 4 years ago. All of us we was here. But when they went to Syria, uh to make work for my father, he went to Syria to make wo-uh, work for him, his own work, and suddenly start the .. war. So we cannot do anything. He cannot come back here, and he cannot start his work. Was here like 13 years.

Please don't cry (laughing)
