“My dreams are to come inland, to feel free and to feel safety,” says Casio (pseud, 2

9), who left Morocco to escape discrimination against their gender. Now seeking refugee status in Germany, Casio spends most days learning the language and talking with friends, who “help me a lot” in navigating life in a new country. The journey from Morocco to Europe was far from easy. But Casio explains, “It’s not safe there. You can’t express yourself outside your chamber, inside your family, or society. Now I can express myself and be with my friends. I feel happy when I meet with them.” Casio traveled to Turkey and Greece, then via five other countries to reach Germany: “It took one year and seven months to be here.” Along the way, Casio was captured eight times, beaten, robbed, and jailed, but says, “I survived this all… to build my new life here.” Casio hopes to move on, drawing strength from past hardships: “I remember my stress and I remember my fears, and focus on what I have to do now.” Full Story
