We’re going to be finishing Arabic school in a few months, and this means that we’re getting ready for what’s next.
For a while we thought we would probably stay in the Levant (this part of the Middle East) for the foreseeable future. But as you’ve probably noticed, things change quickly in this neck of the woods.

In fact, since we moved here, Sofia’s home country, Sweden, has received more refugees per capita than any other European nation.
Refugees with stories just like Malaka:
As we’ve weighed up our options, we’ve kept coming back to the fact that we actually might be of more use in Sweden, where we are residents, know the system and can help with the process of integration than we could if we stayed.
So in June, we’re moving back to Sweden.
