Report from Ali

Journey to London. The main aim of this visit was to raise the awareness among Palestinian people about the case of Palestine through drama. We visited many of the schools and organisations and we told them about Palestine. Also we managed to produce short films about Palestine and the problems that the Palestinians face. We did drama sketches in relation to the problems that Palestinians face in their lives and we showed some of these sketches in a cultural day in London.

During the visit we saw many beautiful and important places in Britain. We went to Parliament and historical and unique places. We enjoyed this visit from the first day we arrived. Camping was for me a very useful experience, and also living without electricity was interesting. Meeting with my new friends in London was also enjoyable.

Everything was good on this trip and I did not face any problems. There were no problems on this visit.

I learned many things during this visit. I learned how to live without electronic equipment, and how to live inside nature and how to depend on myself. My expectations were less than the reality – it was much, much better than I expected.

My role in this journey was good. I don’t think that I caused any problems. I would like to see the communication between the Palestinians and the British continuing and good. I would love to help in improving the links between the two sides and to have an active role in building these links between us. I believe that the programme for the trip was good and did not need any changes.
