“I fled the Philippines, because of a very scary ex of my mother. After that she met my stepdad through a dating site, with whom she got married four years later. Since then, we live with him in the Zaan region. Many people feel lonely and it’s my dream to make them see that they matter. My wish for Zaanstad is that we can be a multicultural society without prejudice. So that everyone can live in peace and we can enjoy each other’s cultures.”
