À propos de ce contenu audio
In this episode Manchán has a chat with Adam from Morocco. Adam comes from Safi, a Moroccan coastal town famous for its seafood barbecues. ‘Everyone in the city knows how to swim and how to fish, and the sardines we catch are known throughout Morocco.’ He tried cooking fish from Irish rivers, ‘but it’s not the same’.
He works in a barber shop in Athlone and has made good friends. He says the Irish are similar to Moroccans in that both are easy going and like to joke. The main difference is that ‘the Irish get drunk while the Moroccans get stoned’. He’d love to go home, but life isn’t safe for him there and he realises that he might never get back. 'It's hard. After five years you miss your family a lot. I used not to think about it, but now I miss my mum. I see her getting older.’
He wishes people here would remember that most direct provision residents are entirely alone. ‘Maybe if they try to get closer to us it's better. I have no family. When I go home I'm all alone.’
