​Can you imagine fleeing your country, and crossing borders to a strange land? As the lioness in this story, I left my warm habitat due to the civil war in Sudan. I encountered insurmountable obstacles as I grappled with social isolation and cultural adjustment in the new country. As a tropical being, the lioness couldn't tolerate the frigid climate and excruciating loneliness in Canada. As a result, I hopped on a plane, again. This memoir will inform those who are facing the unknown how to navigate roadblocks.​
