The first time I stepped inside the house, there were strangers. They had grimy faces and leather boots caked in wet mud. Anxiety was radiating from me. I was the new member of the tribe in this unknown territory. I watched them devouring old soggy food. "You're gonna love it here" One said. a bit of relief was lifted-- and the strangers became my friends.
