My name is Mahmoud Aghiorly and I am a volunteer translator with TED. I am from Syria, and I am from the city called Aleppo, located on the North. This city is an ancient city Actually, it's been there 3,000 years but now within 4 years everything's just finished. Most of my places in memories and buildings that I loved, are destroyed. And they're just bent down, or bombed, or just throwing. These places are not there right now We were just adopted so many stories but actually, it's very difficult for us that he can't leave them. And it touched me in my heart. Actually, as a woman and as a mother that my baby wouldn't have the ability to visit his father's places or mother's places. so yeah Me and my brother were posted in engineers and we were dreaming actually to have an engineering consultant obviously but the engineering office was in the middle and heated area so it was also mostly destroyed. So I think even you imagine future is destroyed or bent down I spent around 5 years into it then I emmigrate to Australia by 2015. We came here on second day of November. Last year, everthing was dark and when the sun rises, it is a new life. Everything seems beautiful, everything is green with so much flowers.
