“There鈥檚 something about sleeping in your own bed of years ago, in seeing your mom in the kitchen, in smelling zaatar2 in the streets; something to hearing the squeaky horn of the kaak3 seller鈥檚 motorcycle, to seeing familiar streets and faces, and hearing the familiar language and noises that just set your heart beating faster, get your breath coming quicker, get your smile to flash in a second and your stress to melt away into the heat鈥� Take me home.”

“In Lebanon, we have the 鈥榥eighbourhood watch鈥� too, but here they鈥檙e watching you! This watchful community spirit is not formalized as an institution with meetings and action plans, but it runs just as effectively if not more so than any official body.”
