WHAT IS IT TO BE A EUROPEAN?
I watched the BBC news from Berlin with dropped jaw last week.

My most recent journey was an exploration of Europe and what it means to be a European. Here are some emotional thoughts at the end of the 2 months traveling through my own continent, and learning about the lives of refugees, aid workers, volunteers and locals.
