My friend and I participated in a video dinner, as part of a collaborative initiative with the student organisation Veritas, and met a student from Rotterdam, who is originally from Yemen. We were very surprised at how good his Dutch is already. He spoke very candidly and extensively about the journey he had taken to get to where he is now.
We are still impressed by his story and his perseverence and it’s given us a different perspective on ‘the people’ behind the media stories.
