Marte, Norway

This experience has been one of the best in my entire life. During these two weeks, I’ve experienced some major ups and downs (but definitely more ups), but the two things that has made the strongest impression were the kids at the Askar Refugee Camp and our meeting with the local community, especially the one eyewitness who told us about his life as a refugee from Jaffa – a breathtaking story which moved us all.

The staff members of Zajel are some of the best people I’ve ever met. They work hard day and night to give you the best experience, and they’ve succeeded without a doubt.

The stay at the castle has also been very good, an amazing site and a lovely bunch of people to share it with. When it comes to the downside of this camp, I’m honestly lost for words because there almost aren’t any. As I said, this stay has been very intense and the schedule has been tight every day. So thank you guys, every single one of you, for making this the experience of a lifetime. I will forever treasure all of you in my heart.
