BELGRADE, Aug. 27 (Xinhua) -- Refugees from Syria who camp in parks around the bus stations here revealed to Xinhua details of their risky, exhausting 4,000 km journey to escape civil war and hopefully reach Germany where they aim to build a new life.
55-year-old Mohammad, a businessman from the South of Syria, is one among 11 people waiting for a bus to take them to the Hungarian border.
His companions are Nike VaporMax Homme Pas Cher , according to him, "above middle class" -- also businessmen, teachers, engineers to whom the prolonged armed combat between government and rebels became unbearable. They all had a spare 3,000 to 4,000 U.S. dollars per person to pay for their way to safety.
"Syrian people are dying. Death is not strange to them. Whether you get killed in Syria, or you end up in the sea, or get shot by the coast guard of Turkey or Greece -- we know that we are dying. But we have only one choice -- do or die Nike VaporMax Bordeaux Pas Cher ," Mohammad said, adding people sold all property and things of value to headed to the European Union (EU).
"Seventy percent of our families were killed by oil drums (exploding barrels filled with TNT, oil and chunks of steel)," he added.
On their dangerous journey across the sea from Turkey to Greece in a rubber boat that started two weeks ago, they lost 12 people from their group somewhere in the Aegean Sea, but the remaining ones kept on going towards Germany and other EU countries, across Macedonia and Serbia.
"Those boats can receive 10, maximum 15 people comfortably Nike VaporMax Rose Pas Cher , but they put 55, sometimes 60, depending on if there are children," Mohammad said, adding engines, life vests, as well as boats themselves are of poor quality which makes the risk even greater.
According to reports of several Syrian refugees, the price for the boat is around 1 Nike VaporMax Blanche Pas Cher ,200 U.S. dollars per person. The captain of the boat is one of the passengers that receives training for five minutes.
On a highly unsafe 10 km journey to the Greek islands that lasts several hours, they get often stopped and returned to the shore by the Turkish police, and then have to pay another 200 U.S. dollars to illegal boat renters in order to have another try.
"Several hundred meters from the Turkish shore, the engine that pulls 50 people with only 15 horse power would stop and we would have water inside the engine. Water would come in the boats and they would be inundated. Big waves are the most frequent reason why people die," Mohammad said.
According to him, once migrants reach Greece, as well as Macedonia and Serbia, they lack water and food.
"We are human beings we have to survive. We have money but where to buy goods in the bush or in the desert? Sometimes we had to walk for kilometers between each border. Children needed toilet and to eat. There is crime Nike VaporMax Rouge Pas Cher , fear, animals, snakes, scorpions. You cannot see humanitarian organizations along the road," Mohammad continued.
During the trip, migrants rarely get the chance to stay in a hotel. Usually they sleep in the open air or in tents. They wait hours in long lines to get papers from police stations to confirm their identity and enable continue their journey.
Shops often charge them up to two times the normal price for food and water, using toilets or charging mobile phones. Migrants told Xinhua they feel they are "pushed around like animals."
Mohammad and those like him hope to start their lives anew in Germany by starting a small business, finding a job or continuing their education.
He and his compatriots spend one or two days waiting in Belgrade Nike VaporMax Bleu Pas Cher , together with other refugees from Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Somalia, Eritrea and other countries with raging armed conflicts. Buses lead them to the Serbian towns of Kanjiza or Subotica at the northern border, where they continue their journey across Hungary and Austria.
Among them are brothers 21-year-old Mohammad and 19-year-old Ahmad from the Syrian capital of Damascus who left their 65-year-old mother, relatives and university studies behind.
The brothers intend to continue their studies in Germany, where as they say "universities are much better than in Syria." They say they have enough money to get to Germany.
"We slept on the road and didn't have much to eat. We spent three nights in Turkey Nike VaporMax Grise Pas Cher , five nights on the Greek island waiting for the paper. We spent one day in Macedonia and will spend two days in Serbia," Ahmad said.
"We don't know what is going on in Germany. We will see. We do not have a clear idea. Their universities are better, but it will be hard to get in," Mohammad adds.
New refugees from Syria and other countries in the Middle East and Africa are arriving every day on Greek shores on rubber boats.
