ニューヨーク・タイムズのインスタグラム(nytimes) - 4月30日 05時03分

Stray a few blocks beyond the historic center of #Weimar, Germany, and you’re in a working-class sprawl of chipped pavement, weedy courtyards and occasional bursts of graffiti. That’s where Anas Alkarri and his wife, Aya Alnabulsi, Syrian refugees, have settled, in a dim top-floor apartment. Anas wanted to take advantage of free language lessons and quickly land a job. But like other refugees, he found German difficult and was frustrated by the bureaucratic hurdles and internships most newcomers must clear to hold a job. Refugees are required to take roughly 700 hours of classes in German language and cultural orientation in exchange for benefits. At the end, if they pass a language test, they’re eligible to hold a job and stay in the country permanently. Anas was an accountant in Syria but gave up on that career in Weimar. Instead, he was one of 18 refugees paired with 18 Germans in a summerlong course helping them become workshop leaders. But it didn’t help him get a job. “I think this process of integration is going to be more difficult than people realize,” Anas told @ニューヨーク・タイムズ. “And I think it will come as a surprise to many of the Germans, but it is going to be just as hard for them as it is for us.” @limauricio photographed Anas and Aya at home in Weimar with their young son, Zaid.
