I'm an Afghan woman, refugee in Sweden. AMA.

Grew up in a traditional religious family and have been an ex Muslim since ~18-19. I've lived a while in Afghanistan and have only traveled in couple of major cities there so very little knowledge of the whole land.

I've lived most of my life as refugee/immigrant and basically never have had the right accent, including the time I lived in Afghanistan, so statelessness feels more of a home than any land to me. I came to sweden alone and knew no one, now i have a little family of my own and I'm trying to feel at home so my kid doesn't inherit a sense of not belonging from me.

AMA!
