This paper deals with the unaccompanied minor migrants' journey to Italy. In particular, it takes into account the minors arrived in Italy during the so-called summer of the refugee crisis. It aims to analyses the interrelation between the journey, the reasons to leave and how they affect the migration process. The present proposal illustrates the results of analysis of 21 interviews collected during a field survey carried out in 2016 by the author for the Institute for Research on Population and Social Policies of National Research Council (CNR-IRPPS), on behalf of the Italian Committee of Unicef - United Nation Children Found. The key objective of research was of detecting the minor's experience in relation to their migratory experience and to reconstruct their journey towards Italy which can be considered as true turning point for their biography
