Ion Pop from Tarsolt in Maramures in Romania sits in his makeshift shelter in a forest on the outskirts of Paris. This settlement has been built by a group of around 80 people from Calinesti Oas who have built huts out of materials they have been able to find and have been living here since 2002. Some of them have not found work in France and therefore can't afford to pay rent. Others prefer to live in these makeshift settlements to save money. Ion is planning to return to Romania since he wasn't able to find any work.
