From Fleeing the Taliban to Best-selling Author - Abbas Nazari shares his harrowing story

From Fleeing the Taliban to Best-selling Author - Abbas Nazari
shares his harrowing story

Abbas Nazari, a former Afghan refugee, escaped the Taliban in
2001. He was among over 400 asylum seekers saved by the Norwegian
container ship, MV Tampa, in the Indian Ocean, while seeking
refuge in Australia. Despite being denied asylum and detained
offshore for weeks by Australian special forces, Abbas and his
family found resettlement in New Zealand.

Abbas was incredibly vulnerable and open about the experiences he
has had and the struggles he’s faced as a refugee. This
conversation was eye-opening and gave me a lot of
perspective.

Please share this episode with your loved ones.

Thank you to Kaushik at Dark Matter Studio in Christchurch for
