Last week, we shared Marina’s adoption story from Crimea to Italy as part of our An Adoption Story series. The original story with Marina was filmed in 2023, but we got the chance to reshare it here on our Facebook page last week. Since then, Marina has given us an update on what’s changed in her life since that time. In this Where Are They Now update, we catch up with Marina to see how her story has continued since sharing it with fellow adoptee Alex Gilbert. You can watch the full update here.

Laiali who lives in Barcelona, Spain contacted our I’m Adopted Spanish team with Iván Gastañaga a year ago. She wanted to search for her birth bother and siblings. Laiali herself was born in Haifa, Israel in 1988 and adopted by Spanish parents in 1995. After one year of intensive work with social services, journalists and friends in Israel, we found her birth mother and Laia
