    My father paid some men to take us to the UK in a lorry because it was too dangerous for us to stay in Afghanistan. The journey was very long and difficult.

    When we arrived in Dover, I didnt know where we were. At first I thought we were in London and I was surprised because it looked so small!

    The police took us to a police station and we stayed there all night. The police officers were very kind to us and gave us hot drinks and food.

    The next day, a translator came because we didnt speak any English. They asked us a lot of questions and we were scared that wed have to go back to Afghanistan, but we got permission to stay in the UK, and now Im studying English at a college in London.
