that's my closest point of contact with my grants in my everyday life. otherwise, i don't interact much with them, that after 5 hours of walking, they arrive at the cabin. around 14000000 people go hiking in germany. that makes this bought one of the most popular in the country. most of the group and prepare dinner. others use the time to relax. oh, after dinner, they're all go to bed early. the ideal preparation for tackling the summit tomorrow . yeah, why is it wednesday today is our big high, highest. we will start here at south goods, puts hot splitter than we go up here. your horse, that's our fence. then go along the ride to yacht bag. there are further to the token bag and then along here on that already that sense here them. so in the up stage, and here we will decide whether we go back to the cabin or whether we still take on

the 30 occasions, the alex niemen on stun philip louthan will be on the road for about 8 hour soon to be excited. we hadn't covered that argument overland. adobe another person. so i fled from our trail down to a to yoga. and yeah, we'll, hadn't, i traveled to sedan. and from there i got to libya, the someone, holden. oh, on my way to libya, we were kidnapped for about 2 weeks. selina manage. hm. missouri, oklahoma, it was hot. had we experienced severe hunger and thirst. my son and around 5 people died from there. how much to somebody coming up, we left their bodies. there's more than because we didn't have a choice lady's name on it. in a wet came to europe on a boat. he became a refugee at $24.00 because he refused to enter military service in eritrea.

this means imprisonment oh, worse. ah, it's ruth nifty than they. i didn't know the journey would be so de valera, we were on the road for a very long time about a mom of 100 of it and at some point the food ran out of the bag of others. feel that it was especially difficult in the mountains. yeah. as we had to walk up and down a very high peak and it had slow down as we had normal sneakers long. we haven't got proper hiking, boots from canada, who's big a run of sure. it had them, i was scared at the beginning because i didn't expect we would have to hike for 24 hours, climb of mountains sergey hops. when i was there, i thought alex is yes. maybe one or 2 hours of walking. it's okay often it'll do that to have a better future written without fuqua. pub in brooklyn, fraser fled afghanistan with her parents and 5 siblings when she was 9 years old. shadonia if i could, if i hadn't iraqi foster family and was at their home very often finished. now i

notice that they felt very cramped in their own space and they often live in very small apartments with many people. and they experienced a lot of stress. he and germany on dr. steph, then they're not familiar with all this bureaucracy. google cuts his kennedy, so i went hiking with the entire family and it did them the word of good. i didn't i before they came out of the shell and relax. it's hard. so i thought, why not make this bigger, anthony, a requisite of thin, i just pulled psychologists say, hiking relief, stress. it makes participants feel competent and autonomous. ah, well, so 3, the steady movement you unwind that doesn't matter whether you hike 3 meadows or climb peaks after 3 hours, the group reaches the top with,

oh, and it is dice. it's got a typical german tradition. is that when you arrive at the summit, you drink a snap with the so some alcohol loosen up, this is caught a stomach if we don't go toast together. but with the coke bottle gummy bears. that means 1st we all have to bite up a little bit at out, enter toast together, or that storage with liver. i'd like, oh, boy. mm. as a sure there was an i would say once a refugee always a refugee because you always have this refugee background. also, when you meet all the people they always ask with, well, you from comes to those people. you are still a refugee. him are not unfinished. mm ah sell underwood.

with because at 1st many migrants are isolated. i'm not sure why that is by one reason surely is that people are grouped together and stuck somewhere loaded up on a thumbnail. maybe that's necessary at the beginning in order to get them registered somewhere by then i think things need to be sped up yet and then you need to spread people out to facilitate contact with the general population. i'm not sure that was always done so well like on the pill that it is, the mock would could human ah, the project is cold vendor glueck or hiking happiness. it's been going on for full years. around 45 people have been brought together this way. i dropped that vaguely come an indian and i do believe you can really arrive and settle it by walking together. so i notice it myself acting white walking. you'll find yourself, you can think about yourself and where you want to go. uncommon as a question of what does it mean to arrive my arriving somewhere is getting to

a place where you feel well and feel at home? i think through hiking this group can do that and develop a sense of togetherness calling because they feel well ah, after 3 days of walking together, the hiking to a to lake as it is the miles i had a good time during these 3 days. saturday was straightforward, the local yesterday's hike was too hard when, even though i was not tired, could be no. ah matthews. effie spend a lot of time together. had great conversations with us on what i found challenging was the weather yesterday on la enough it gets done.
