Who is the person sitting next to you on the ship? Who are those crowded in the waiting room of an airport? These questions do not have obvious answers. Because people travel and move for many different reasons, for work, in search of a job, for relaxation, for studies, or simply to go home. The only certain thing is that at Greek ports or airports, as soon as spring begins, the seasonally deployed workers start to crowd among the tourists. The season is a special and uncharted reality, and the only reflection we have of it is what is measured in GDP figures. Konstantina Tsoukala-Stathaki helps us understand that the season is a complex work experience, a shared reality for all those who have been looking for work from a young age, which can also reveal the state of Greek society and, ultimately, teach us to recognize how similar and how different the people who cram on the ships are.
