“Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.” (André Gide)
That’s a basic knowledge of all immigrants, emigrants and wanderers. Some wish to leave Europe, others (from Africa) would give everything to enter Europe. France and UK are divided by the water of the British Channel. But they have built an undersea tunnel for trains. Monthly hundreds try to manage (hidden in trucks and trains) to come from Africa via France to Great Britain. Police is watching the tunnel entrance. I don’t know, why UK is better than France. I would prefer Baguette and cheese, not fish and chips …
