Two invaluable Syrian desires: peace and light
While we still have a few weeks of nice weather ahead of us, a camping trip should definitely be on your agenda. It’s the perfect moment to step away from daily routines, get some fresh air, and recharge in nature. Studies show that spending time outdoors improves both your mental and physical state, reduces stress, boosts your mood, and well, simply perks you up!
‘My parents call me Salaam, Peace. This is what we long for and hope for in Baladna, our country Syria. After four months of roaming throughout southern Syria, moving from house to house our family finally fled to Jordan. As refugees we are not allowed to work here. We get our food by changing special vouchers at the local store. In order to keep busy my father started to refurbish an old barn that happened to stand next to our tent where we are able to find a warm shelter when the winter cold will come. Now the owner is requesting rent. The WakaWaka lamp provides us with light for free. I recharge the lamp every day by putting it right into the sunlight.’
