I've lost Poland. Without Poland, I go down. I've been thrown out; yet I love my country.

Like several hundred thousand fellow Karelians, we became refugees in our own country as great power politics caused the borders of Finland to be redrawn and left my home town as part of the Soviet Union.

We loved being in Russia and would love to go back again, especially to visit my namesake.

I thought for a long time about leaving Albania, but at the same time to play a role in its life.

I escaped from my home country, Bulgaria, to Czechoslovakia and then to the West.

I hope one day when I say I'm from Estonia, people don't say: 'What? Where's that?'

However, I don't doubt that a wave of immigration will come to Poland.

I do go back to Russia frequently, about twice a year. I hate the flight, but it's worth it. My parents have a home in a little village of 12 houses. It's not on any map, so unless you know it's there, you won't find it. Nothing works there; no Internet, no cell phone, and the land line only works sometimes. It's great!

I've seen quite a bit of the world, but I really like Sweden and feel like I could live there some day.

The country voted to leave the European Union, and it is the duty of the Government and of Parliament to make sure we do just that.
