Liera, 15 years old

»I have a little three year old brother and a year ago we came from Donezk to Kyiv.
First of all we just drove spontaneously from Donezk to the sea and from there finally to Kyiv, where my father found a job. I took my clothes and as many things as possible from Donezk.
In Kyiv I'm visiting a high school with a focus on medicine.
Now in the summer holidays, I spend my time in a summer camp for child refugees and during the schooldays we have an ambitious timetable.
I don't have any hobbies, I rather meet my friends and we talk a lot about the university and how we can pass the entrance exam for studying there. I feel happy when I'm together with my relatives and I'm pleased that I am safe and alive - just like my relatives.
I'm only scared in front of a large audience and performances.
I miss my grandparents in Donezk, who stayed there, but I have contact with them via Skype and phone.
My wish is that there is peace finally and above all that I will manage the university and then could work as a dentist.
I would like to thank the people who have made this summer camp for child refugees and I had not thought that I would get so many positive impressions here, particularly during the excursions that we made.«
