Holocaust refugee meets woman who fled Syrian war
Ghofran had to adapt to life in Wales alongside different generations of her family.
"I believe that until now my parents were still not able to get along with the whole system here," she said. The difference in culture and the preconceptions people had of Syrians "made it hard to cope and times", she explained. "People view us in a different way, especially because of all the drama that goes on the news and everything they hear about my religion," she said.
"It was quite a long journey to get people to understand that people like me don't have to be dangerous'."''In Aberystwyth specifically I did not face any racism. People always treated us in a kind way.''Renate came to Wales to escape the Holocaust, while Ghofran fled the civil war in Syria"After the war I couldn't become a British subject," Renate said.
