We got a task to interview some refugees that had to escape from their own country because of war. These refugees came all the way from Syria and Eritrea. We had the opportunity to interview a really great guy, his name was Kadas and came from Eritrea
Why did you come to Norway?
I wasn't safe there, so I couldn't stay. If I'd stay, I'd have to be one of the government. Some people like to stay there and be with the government and others don’t like to stay.
How did you come to Norway.
At first I went to Kurdistan and I stayed there for two years. While I was there, I was teaching kids about music. Things didn't get any better, so I couldn't stay there forever. I kept going to other countries like Turkey and Greece where I stayed for two weeks. Then I went to Macedonia, Serbia, Croatia, Austria, Germany, Denmark, Sweden and then finally Norway.
What would you like to achieve? What would you like to do?
Maybe play football. Not just with friends but at a professional level. Right now I play for Batnfjord.
What do you think about us Norwegians?
For me, perfect. You are very, very polite. I've never seen people like you.
Was there anything you could do in Eritrea that you can't do here in Norway?
I don't know actually. It's really difficult.
Then he asked us what we think about refugees. All of us thought that it's good for the culture.
Is there anything we Norwegians can do to make it better for you refugees?
For me everything is perfect.
In this task we got the pleasure of getting to know a lot more about refugees, and how their life is while escaping. It was a great opportunity.
