I made 'Avoider #1 and #2' a few months after I moved to Melbourne. Both 'Avoiders' were my reaction to my new life in Melbourne while I was comparing my freedom to the situation back in my country, Iran. I close down all my social media to not hear anything from Iran. I wished to close my eyes and live in a place without seeing or hearing any negativity, sadness and injustice, but I Knew that is only an avoider.
