  1. “Home” or home?

    Would love to understand the context behind this photo.

    You’re great at using mystery to explain :)

  3. Kanar. He and his wife, Caroline, have lost at least three children to death resulting from a lack of adequate medical facilities. Driving them back to Chobo from the hospital with a dead child in their arms rates as one of the most helpless moments of my life. We have no idea of what we have in north america

  6. I like the vividness and the vibrancy of this picture. The details are clear and they all speak for themselves. There’s a lot of stories in your picture. The one who holds the camera is a master photographer. Welcome home, prodigal daughter…

  12. home? I used to go with ‘home is where my rucksack is’ but now I’m looking for somewhere a little less temporary than that, but not really sure if I’m on the right track or not yet.
    Found your blog from the expat forum – interesting comment about reverse culture shock! Look forward to seeing more of your pictures …
