Early in the process of the Niemanders recording in asylum centers, journalist Christianne Alvarado came along. Searching for stories for the second season of the Niemanders podcast. With her microphone, she visited classrooms, emergency camps and homes, interviewing residents who were willing to tell their story. 

This is Season 2 episode 1: Pavel

"It is very difficult to live in the present when you are consumed by your future day and night."

Meet Pavel, a Russian who had to flee his country with his family after posting critical comments about the invasion of Ukraine. His open criticism was not tolerated; first, they set his house on fire, and then his family was threatened. In the end, Pavel had no choice but to flee.
