Mahmoud in Sweden

Описание: Follow the incredible story of nine year old Syrian refugee Mahmoud.

In December 2013, Mahmoud and his family were informed they were being relocated to Sweden and in January 2014 they travelled to the small town of Torsby where they would start their new lives.

The move was monumental for so many reasons. "When I first heard I was going to travel, I was so happy," said Mahmoud.

"I have travelled twice before in my life, but the last two times we travelled we were escaping. And this time I am going to live a new life."
