A Thai woman sits alone behind the blinds in a brothel in a forest in Northern Denmark. She’s waiting for customers. She’s been selling sex in Denmark for two years now. She has no legal papers. It’s hard and lonely work, but she earns well. When a car drives up the gravel track behind the house, she looks out through a crack in the blinds. She keeps an eye open for the police. She’s scared of being discovered and deported to Thailand.
Migration and migrant sex work very often are long-distance debt restructuring.
