The Nordic Tribe

The Nordic Tribe There is a great movement of Scandinavians going to the South of Europe, they have their church, cafes and shops selling the type of food sold in the North. The Spaniards, say, accept and ignore them because these strange northerners came here for the sun and not take anyone’s work. You can call the economic refugees, it is cheaper here and that also keeps the heating bill low. The people of the North dislike refugees coming to their country a place to live and they protest loudly. One day, when the economy in the south is par with the Nordic one, the will leave, or seek other shores where they can live as kings among the poor; the Northerner’s are racists by nature but do follow the money and its fluctuations and they have the ability to see the local people where they have temporarily sought shelter, as foreigners.
