Summary
"Please, come back for me", it's the message that Aleksandra (23) received from her sister Kat (17) when she just arrived in Spain fleeing from Odessa with the rest of the family. The younger sister had decided to stay in the city with some friends but with the worsening of the war she asked her to come back and help her to get out of Ukraine. This is their journey trying to arrive to Spain: crossing the border trough Moldova, being detained at the border and sent to a centre of minors, coming back to Odessa and finally getting in the UE through Poland after surviving a missile strike.
"Please, come back for me", it's the message that Aleksandra (23) received from her sister Kat (17) when she just arrived in Spain fleeing from Odessa with the rest of the family as a consequence of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The younger sister had decided to stay in the city at the beginning of the war but, as the situation became unbearable, Kat asked her older sister to come back and help her to get out of Ukraine. This is their journey escaping war and trying to reach Spain to be reunited with the entire family again.
