High up in Turkish valleys, Afghan shepherds dream of home

Description

In Turkish mountains so high the silver clouds almost touch the top of their heads, homesick Afghan shepherds prepare their flocks for a good shear. Kurds in the eastern Mercan Valley have been gradually replaced by Afghans, who fled here by foot and truck across Iran from the poverty and bloodshed back home.

  • Afghan migrants coming up against an increasingly hostile Turkish border

    Istanbul / Van (Turkey), Aug 26 (EFE / EPA) .- An extremely guarded and largely walled border, repatriations and, apparently, even hot returns. This is what awaits the majority of Afghan refugees trying to reach Turkey from Iran.Unlike what happened in 2011, when the war broke out in Syria and the millions of people who fled there found the border with Turkey open, now the Eurasian country is shielding itself at full speed.FOOTAGE OF THE BORDER BETWEEN IRAN AND TURKEY, A DEPORTATION CENTER AND AN OPERATION CARRIED OUT BY THE TURKISH SECURITY FORCESSOUNDBITES FROM A MIGRANT TRAFFICKER AT THE IRAN-TURKEY BORDER (THE FACE AND VOICE OF THE INTERVIEWEE HAVE BEEN CHANGED) 1. "We give money to Iranian soldiers to make things easier at the border. That work is easy, but in Turkey things are more difficult. We cannot solve it with money. When we solve the problem in one part, our work is done, half as easy. Sometimes we direct migrants to other routes."2. "It varies, (immigrants) pay between $ 350 and $ 600 (from Iran to Turkey)."3. "They pay between $ 1,000 and $ 1,100 from Afghanistan to Turkey. At least that."4. "(In Europe) We take them mostly to Italy. They pay $ 8,000 to go to Italy."5. "We prefer Italy because it is easier. Sometimes they want to go to Greece. If only one person travels, we charge 2,000 dollars. The road is very dangerous, we drive from Edirne to Bulgaria. It is very dangerous and risky. Families are not accepted, we take families to Italy. We cannot guarantee it because it is very dangerous. "

  • How To Sidestep Buying Expensive Home Warranties

    The average homeowner spends anywhere from 1% to 4% of their home's purchase price on maintenance every year. That can make home warranties appealing. But a home warranty's fine print can translate into it not always coming through when you need it to. So when Business Insider contributor Choncé Maddox got burned by her home warranty company skating out of some pricey repairs, she turned the tables. Instead of paying for another warranty, she put the same $500 she would have spent on it into a high-yield savings account for home maintenance. If a new air conditioner costs $2,000 to $3,000, she can come up with the money a lot quicker without paying for a warranty! Also, she and her husband took it upon themselves to learn how to take care of the valuable systems in their home. Hooray for YouTube!
