Header-picture taken by Channoh Peepovicz while covering ‘Over the fortress’ demonstration at Brenner some weeks ago.

This blog and my Facebook page have been inactive for almost one month now. So I am back with a classy #whatsinmybag type of posts.

The reason I have been offline for several weeks are  other work and the preparation for this trip.
Now I will be back with more regular posts the upcoming week starting from Friday. Our flight to Athens via Rome departs in Munich at around 6:30 PM. In the middle of the night my colleagues and I will arrive at the capital of Greece and join a film-team already shooting a documentary about ‘City Plaza Hotel – Refugee Accommodation and Solidarity Space’ in Athens. The team has been shooting the past two weeks. I will gather some drone-shots and maybe catch some pro- and counter-refugee demonstrations over the weekend with them.
From June 13^th on my colleagues and I will be on our own and we will cover the overall situation for refugees stuck in Athens and Greece at the moment.
So the following stuff is in my bag:
