Perfume Island's Fatal Lure

Douamour climbs into a small fishing boat to travel across the open sea to the Island of Mayotte - a lesser-known Southern border of the EU. The stretch of water around Mayotte has been described as "the widest cemetery in the world" – thousands have died when their boats capsized. Why is Douamour making this treacherous journey?
