Every object tells a story. For Loujean it’s her Syrian grandfather’s watch, for Bernd it’s the hairbrush he carried in his trunk on the Kindertransport from Hamburg, for Rebecca it’s the stethoscope to reminds her she is still a doctor even though she had to flee Ukraine. instagram.com/peoplemove_
