This is one of the hardest stories we've ever had to tell. Experiencing Syria today, speaking to both our Christian Syrian friend Touma and our Palestinian/Syria friend Ghaidaa, we learned what life was truly like growing up here.

We know many parts in here will be shocking, thought provoking or hard to swallow for many, but we feel responsible to share this story after what we experienced and heared.

Our intention here is to share real-life witness stories of our friends we've learned to love and through that to shed light on the realities of our world today.

A few days after we left, revenge attacks were committed against people of the Alawite Sect and Christians, which we were devastated to see. Although some are celebrating their recent freedom, many are living in fear in the country today and we pray that peace will ultimately prevail in the country and between all in the region.

As humans, we deserve a world of peace. We've spent too many years in wars causing generational damage to entire populations, and it's still happening today in Gaza and the West Bank. May we come to our senses and demand peace from our leaders.

Many will interpret a call for peace as a political statement, that is for you to decide. We just do not believe that violence especially against tens of thousands of civilians is the path to any sort of long-term solution.

Sending love to all of you watching this story today. And may peace find you wherever you are.

Who are we?
We believe life’s greatest moments and deepest connections exist outside your comfort zone.
