Kirsten Koza Goes Inside Zaatari Syrian Refugee Camp

Posted by Kirsten Koza on April 5, 2014 in writers' expeditions magazine | 88 Views

Zaatari Syrian Refugee CampThe first part of my three part series on Syrian refugees was just published in TheBlot magazine (Wall St, NYC). I flushed the entire story I planned on writing down my mental latrine within minutes of arriving inside the gate of Al Za’atari. What I imagined it would be like and what it was actually like is the same as comparing Disney to Quentin Tarantino.
