Name: BSP0001 - Llanor by Barrel Stories Project
Duration: 16 min 39 s
Description: Llanor doesn’t remember exactly how long she spent in the care of a beloved aunt – somewhere between 6 months to a year. Yet the strong bond that they forged during that time was still evident several decades later, when she again turned to her aunt during another period of transition. She explores that connection in her collage entitled “I Never Dreamed You Were An Island”.

The Barrel Stories Project is giving a voice to the thousands of Caribbean people who sacrifice for a better life. We are creating a website where migrant parents, people who were once children left behind and the caregivers who temporarily looked after them, can share their stories or listen to the stories of others, a place where they can find community.
