Christy walking home Cordoba students in Tel Rumeida

I remember this day so well. I had just arrived to Hebron and Palestine for the first time. Everything looked so scary and new. I was only visiting Terje for a few weeks and still hadn´t started working for TIPH. I went with Terje to the Cordoba girl school and fell in love with the girls straight away. They were all nice to me and wanted to talk to the strange lebanese girl which is "married" to Terry, the swedish guy. After the school day was over we started walking some of the girls home to try to protect them from getting assaulted by israeli settlers or harrassed by israeli soldiers. Before I knew it two of the girls had grabbed both my hands and we were walking hand and hand. It was a strong feeling.
