Førstereis og førsteinntrykk
Jeg tror det ofte kan være sånn at når vi begynner med noe nytt, fokuserer vi mye på å gjøre et godt førsteinntrykk selv.
Da kan våre egne førsteinntrykk av situasjonen vi står overfor, havne i bakgrunnen.
Volunteering at Skaramagas Camp, Athens
It is 9:30 in the morning when we arrive at the final bus stop along the A16 route from central Athens. This is the route we travel every day, to reach the camp at the industrial port of Skaramangas. As I step onto the embankment of the busy motorway I am hit by a wave of heat. We make our way through the pedestrian underpass, accompanied by some refugees – a young family with two babies in a pushchair, a couple of teenagers returning from the city. As I follow the rubbish-strewn path I am already wishing that there were more shade.
