Yemen faces separatist factions, Al-Qaeda operations, unpredictable revolts and severe poverty. To the reporter, its future seems bleak. Yet she calls her journey through the country one of the most fascinating experiences she has had.
That was above all because she got to know her Yemeni counterparts: women fully covered under black veils. What are they like under those dark garments? Are they repressed, or do they really feel more comfortable covered? The report sets out to answer these questions.
