As a young child, Peter Dewildt (84) grew up in a children's home, where life was anything but easy. At the age of 15, he ran away from home, and found a job on a cargo ship. When he was 17, that ship arrived in Australia. Life on board was terrible, so he decided to jump the ship, to build a new life in Australia on his own.
This interview is in English.
