“I can’t live in a house without greenery. I have a strong relationship with plants. I had planted more than hundreds of types of flowers in my house in Afrin, but after the Turkish invasion of the area in 2018, I moved from Afrin to Qamishli with my family and lost all my plants. We have rented a house here, and now I am trying to regrow what I have lost here on my small balcony. I sit among these flowers daily and think about my home and all the things we lost”.
