The distances (2025)
Omar lived in a very small village in Africa. He arrived in Barcelona in the winter. He would like to learn languages and study, but there are no vacancies in the courses. He would like to work, but he has to wait until he has papers. He would like to get to know the city, find people who trust him, and not feel so alone. He misses his village, his family, and especially his mother. They talk often on the phone, but Omar can't express how difficult everything is here.
