A migrant is doing housework while other people are having a party outside, in Alboraya, Spain. This recording represents a migrant's solitude in contrast to the energy and euphoria of other people.

In the recording you feel a mixture of feelings: anguish, explosion, euphoria, anxiety, tranquility, the attempt to reconnect with oneself.

Recorded by Pablo Ojeda Doménech.

Part of the Migration Sounds project, the world’s first collection of the sounds of human migration.
