The Repatriation Diaries is a two-part series of autobiographical comics about returning to the USA after ten years of living abroad. Beginning with my unexpected move to Boston in the midst of a raging pandemic, the book spans a year of my life in semi-isolation as I stumble through each month, accidentally stealing a vacuum cleaner from my neighbor, working eclectic jobs, and finally getting a haircut.
