Abstract

Refugee campsites in Greece have provided temporary relief for hundreds of asylum seekers. At their peak, camp populations have exceeded over a thousand people, mainly Kurdish people seeking refugee status. In search of a better life, the people arrive in Greece by way of a smuggler's speedboat, a dilapidated ship, or crossing minefields. People often create functioning villages within the confines of the most difficult living situations. Their life there becomes a small mirror of the country and the life that they left behind. When the people are finally ready to leave the camps, it is simply the start of another chapter in their complicated journey to the golden land.
