Peace by Chocolate is a movie that tells the story of a Syrian family who found community, and re-built their lives and business in Canada. It's a beautiful movie that shows how difficult it is to leave your home country and start all over again.
It's a great movie to practice your English listening!
My friend Emma, and a group of her friends in Toronto, sponsored a family from Syria in 2017, and she joins me in this intermediate English conversation to share that experience and tell us about how the family is doing today.
We recorded this episode before the horrific earthquake in Syria and Turkey earlier this month. Now, as in 2017, there are people who will need to relocate and rebuild their lives. Let's do all we can to help them.
I hope today's English conversation and the movie Peace by Chocolate will help you understand better what it's like to be a refugee, and how empathy and community can help.
I dedicate this episode to everyone who has re-built their lives. You are brave and heroic.
Thank you for listening.
