arms, she sighed, knowing that his life was to be full of heart-
threw himself into his mother’s
breaks for his imperfect appearance.
He grew up, handsome for his misfortune and popular with his fellow students. He might
have been class monitor,but for that. He developed a gift, a talent for literature and music. Two
years went by. One day, his father said to the son, “You’re going to the hospital, son. Mother and I

My first trip to Greece took place in the 1960s. There I accepted a challenge to hitchhike(搭
便车)with a group of English friends from my university in Birmingham to Athens with little
money.For me, a 20-year-old girl, I had not done anything like this before. lt was so hard on the
road.We slept in the open air, ate little more than bread and cheese, and depended heavily on the
help of strangers. But it helped me learn aboutEuropean society.
One day, my Greek friend came to see me at the youth hostel and asked me to step
outside.He was angry with me. He reminded me of my social background and asked what my
English. After
parents would say if they saw me living in these conditions like these “dirty”　
several weeks on the road, we did look tired; but his choice of the word “dirty” interested was showing a historic dislike of the English that some Europeans had. In that part of Europe,both
the Turks and the Greeks, who dislike each other to this day, blamed(责怪) the English for their
national disasters. He ignored my explanations of having accepted the challenge of hitchhiking.He
took me home and his family, especially his mother and sisters, showed me Greek hospitality(好
客) at its best.
My experience in Greece could not have differed more from the situation facing
Pakistanis—and others seeking shelter —in Greece today.On recent visits to Greece in connection
with my study on Islam in Europe, I saw the trouble of the refugees(难民). Some said that they
had been physically beaten. However, there are good stories of ordinary Greeks giving shelter to
some hopeless refugees. The sense of Greek hospitality that I experienced as a student does exist.
