    LONE STROLL, Perpignan, France: Although the neighbourhood was a very confined and dense environment. I still felt very Isolated. The same sense of isolation the Muslims feel towards the French. by: alexswinburn Views[255] TWO WIDOWS, Perpignan, France: With the assistance of my poor grasp of French, and various illustrative hand movements gesturing to the women on the left, asking her how long she had lived in this neighborhood for. Expecting her to say something like 40 years. She responded with, “I came from Turkey only 2 years ago with my husband, but he died last week.” by: alexswinburn Views[231] MOTHER HAS LEFT, Perpignan, France: An elderly lady minds a small child amongst the derelict and undoubtedly unhygienic streets.

Capping off the sadness, we see stray dogs chained to polls, with no owners in site. by: alexswinburn Views[262]
