Housing Difficulties Facing Seasonal Workers in Santorini
An aesthetics worker describes the need to move every autumn due to the lack of affordable housing on the island.
Marianna Veki, a 27-year-old aesthetician working at a major hotel unit in Santorini for most of the year, spoke about the challenges of finding affordable housing at the end of the tourist season.
As highlighted in the Radcast podcast episode 'Can I Stay?', the departure of visitors in the autumn leaves many workers unable to secure year-round accommodation, forcing them to relocate.
