Refugee Odyssey to Europe
Paralyzing fear one day, boredom the next; joy, then doubt and anguish…waiting to hear their fate, refugees experience strangely conflicting emotions, often in a single day.
I started photographing the odyssey of refugees coming to Europe in the summer of 2015. People fleeing from war and bad economic situations in their home countries attempt the journey in a myriad of ways many of them travel to the Greek islands, eventually find their way to the mainland, and then journey through Macedonia, Serbia, Hungary, Croatia and Slovenia before making their way into Europe.
