  14. Very encouraging to hear! Thank you for sharing 🙂 I come from Australia, and I am disappointed with my country’s lack of effort in protecting refugees. I have written an article on my blog about why I think we need to be doing more to protect refugees and how we should achieve this. It would be great if you could check it out and let me know your thoughts! Thanks 🙂
