Over the past 20 years, thousands of young Macedonian women and men worked in the kitchens and laundries of US military bases in Afghanistan and Iraq. With the withdrawal of the last US troops in summer 2021, they came back and brought with them quickly-earned money, soon invested in real estate, but also traumatic memories.
