Rami Anis is one of almost five million people to have fled Syria in the past five years. He traversed seven countries in ten days, via foot, trains, buses and a motorised dinghy that malfunctioned in the Aegean Sea. Other refugees have attempted similar journeys and not survived. Now living in Belgium, Rami competed for the first ever Olympic Refugee Team at the 2016 Rio Games. #TransWorldSport
