“Hello! My name is Shahnaz.
I am from Afghanistan. I'm 28 years old.
I came to Greece in the fall of 2018. I first arrived to Greece on the island Lesbos.
Currently, I'm living in Athens. I'm with my son and my husband but, because we don't have a home, we are not living together.
I don't have any relatives in Europe so I asked for asylum papers in Greece. I'm patient and I try to be strong in front of problems even though I'm an emotional person.
I didn't paint in my home country. I went to a class in Lesvos and they helped me to learn. When I'm painting, it helps makes me feel calm. I went to school in Afghanistan until fifth grade.
My dream is to continue my studies and to have a successful family.”
