Young and old, Syrian women adjust to new conditions
“This is not our country and I am quite protective,” says Hiba. “I can’t have my eldest daughter walking alone in the streets. That is also why they enjoy the workshops.” As we talk, Hiba sits on the bed where she sleeps together with her children. Hiba says she misses her husband, and so do her children, though the youngest never got to know him. “I can go on like this as long as needed,” she says.
