Silvia Gharaba

    My name is Silvia Gharaba and that already explains a lot, right? 

    I was born and raised in northern Italy, the great majority of my family is Palestinian and I have an Israeli passport: that’s why I write about migrations and its results. I also work as digital strategist and journalist and I like raccoons.

    My countries of birth, citizenship, and origin don't always make sense together.
