“Heritage”

Society is changing drastically, many of us forget where we come from. Earlier this year of 2020 I took a trip to China, the village where my parent’s grew up. I wanted to learn more about my culture and see where my parents lived before immigrating to the USA. Kaiping is the city's name and the specific village they’re from is called "Chikan". It's located in the Southern tip of China, part of the Guangdong Province.

After a few days of settling in, we had to quarantine right away in the village without knowing how long it will last. No one had any idea an pandemic was about to break out. I couldn’t leave the village so I ended up taking long walks along the river and exploring back roads.
