I don't know where to start after reading your post... Regarding the real estate market, the same thing is happening in Spain... The gap between rich and poor is growing, and the middle class is disappearing... For (local) young people, it's almost impossible to buy a home, as there is no way to collect enough for the "entrance", and paying the mortgage for 50 years is crazy...

And regarding the mural, I like these "social awareness" artworks, which remind us about our weaknesses, our failure, and trying to push us to do better, to be better... There is no "nice way" to tell the rough truth, but there is no better wake up calls than that... I didn't know about the story of Alan Kurdi, so I followed your link to find more details about it... It's very sad to see people becoming more and more selfish, seeing so many divorced couples where children pay the price, and exploiting other tragedies is probably the worst thing of all... 😞

Thanks for sharing this beautiful mural and the story around it! Appreciate it!
