Leaving Ukraine was tough, and starting over had its challenges. But experiencing discrimination after being promised fair treatment was really sad. Holland is known for being peaceful, but there's still racism, like in Haarlem. Even though we were welcomed warmly, discrimination ruined a simple lunch.
