A refugee´s journey
My name is Muslu Cicel, and I survived the nerve-racking journey from Damaskus to Austria. Our hometown had been bombed for months when I made the decision to leave Syria. Days of planning followed. I had to plan the route very precisely. Finally, on the 14th of June, I left my family behind and made ma way through countless battle-starred towns. When I arrived at the Turkish border, I was relieved as well as scared, because the people-smuggler I had paid to get me across the border didn´t show up. After a wait of what seemed like hours, he finally arrived and got me all the way to Greece. From there on, I felt safe again. All I had to do was take trains and wait.
The second I crossed the Austrian border I was takes care of. I live in a refugee camp in Vienna and get 50€ a week. My plan for now is to safe my money until I become a state resident of Austria.
