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 13th 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.
