A day in the life of Shaymaa

Shaymaa is a 19 years old Palestinian girl who considers Daraa’, in Syria, her home because it is where she spent the first half of her childhood. She has suffered from the same ordeal as her grandparents, who had to flee Palestine asking for refuge. Because of the Syrian war, Shaymaa was displaced from her home and she now lives in Ain al-Hilweh Palestinian refugee camp in Lebanon, an hour south of Beirut.
