Wiam, 9 years old
»I have been living here for two months now with my three brothers, two sisters and my parents.
We didn't taken anything from home.
At first we fled into the mountains and it was very dangerous. We spent four days in the mountains, I slept under trees and we only had very little water to drink. We descended by foot towards Syria and then we went by car to Kurdistan in Iraq.
My favorite subject at school was formerly Arabic, now I don't have any school anymore. But soon there will be a new one built here in the camp.
There is nothing that makes me really happy.
I'm playing football with friends or we also like to play school.
My greatest wish is that I can return again to Sinjar and that I'm together with my friends.
Thanks.«
