in a refugee accommodation in Gutau / Upper Austria, he recently moved to Vienna and attended the “Start Wien Jugendcollege”.

But Alaa is not only a refugee – due to his numerous experiences during his stays in different
countries and cultures, he also sees himself as a cosmopolitan, as a well-traveled citizen of the world.

Alaa spends his days learning German, he plays soccer, trains for the marathon, meets friends – but most of the time he spends on imagining his own second fantasy world by creating a very complex fictional story.
