Recent Russian aggression in Ukraine is something I’ve been following closely, having been born and raised in Poland. I travelled to Poland shortly after the war broke out and witnessed one of the biggest refugee crises in Europe in the last century. Arrival of trains filled with people, pouring out into the platforms, flooding Polish cities. Thousands of refugees fleeing war, searching for asylum. The ground under their feet appears to sway and twist as they descend into the unknown, having left all that’s familiar behind.
