Can those who have experienced being driven away from their homeland still travel completely freely and carefree? To find out, Afraa Batous  boldly proposes a road trip in a camper van through Europe to her three friends Rahaf, Sara and Rawa, who, like her, had to leave their homes in Syria behind eight years ago. Four stories; one continent. Jan Sebening
