Welcome back to Still Friends After All This. I am Lucas Ferreira Prado. Most of the friendships on this show started at school, or at work, or at a hardware store. This one started in a tent. Amira was fifteen and from Libya. Hawa was sixteen and from Eritrea. They met in the Choucha refugee camp on the Tunisian border in 2011, shared a phone, a blanket and a plan, and then lost each other completely for two years. One of them lives in Marseille now and the other in Tunis, and they talk every single day. I sat with them in Tunis during Hawa's first visit in three years and asked them how a friendship like this is built and what it costs to keep. They laughed far more than I expected.
