My husband's parents left Cameroon for New York before he was born. Raised in the US, he had limited contact with his parent's country or relatives. This work documents our trips "home" to a place both intimate and foreign. I'm interested in the evolving dynamics between relatives: those who leave, those who stay behind, those who are born abroad, and those who join a family through marriage.
