His family—mother, father and two brothers, already live in Pittsburgh. Hira and his wife, Momta, have applied for third-country resettlement and are waiting. Hira was 6 when he left Bhutan. Unlike the adults who remember it as a traumatic experience, he recalls his excitement when the big trucks came into his remote village to expel them. "I had never been in a truck before," he said.

Chandra is seeking a divorce and custody of her son from her husband, a Nepali man whom she has not heard from in several years. She and Prabesh live alone in the refugee camps and she worries about her safety. "A few days back I saw someone entering into my house. I thought he was a thief ... I screamed but there was nobody. It was just a nightmare ... So many things have happened in my life, I see images of them in my dreams," she said. Image by Julia Rendleman. Nepal, 2014.")
