Paths of Exile  

The paths of exile are invisible roads forged by pain, hope, and courage. They often begin amidst the chaos of war, fear, or injustice, and continue into the unknown. Each step is an act of abandonment: a home, a language, a childhood left behind. Yet, on these uncertain roads, a silent strength is born. The paths of exile are not merely journeys of escape; they are quests for dignity and freedom.

"The sedentary person is at home everywhere thanks to interactivity; the nomad is at home nowhere, except in transit camps...here or there." Paul Virilio
