Kurdish Syrian Refugees

February 22, 2016 by Rachel Elkind

I met this group of Kurds from Syria who were waiting for the registration line to take their number.  They had to wait a couple days so we were able to talk a while.  They were living in these larger tents that house multiple families.   They invited me to stay with them.  They were worried about me and whether I had a place to sleep.  Their kindness and generosity really touched me. They made their way to Germany and we are in constant contact.  rachel_elkind_refugees_Moria_0249
