一百多年前，第一批华人来到金斯顿——在 Princess Street
开洗衣店，在中餐馆里日夜劳作。岁月流转，一代又一代人在此落地生根，但他们的故事从未被完整地写下来。
这是一系列由本人讲述的故事，记录这座小城里几代华人的生活。
Over a century ago, the first Chinese arrived in Kingston — laundrymen
on Princess Street, restaurateurs working dawn to closing. As the
decades passed, generation after generation put down roots here —
yet their stories have never been told whole.
This is a series of stories in their own voices, tracing generations
of Chinese life in our small city.
「我们五个人 1957 年一起回香港寻找配偶。一年之后，五个都成功地把另一半带回来了。」
“In 1957 the five of us went back to Hong Kong to look for wives. A year later, all five came home with one.”
Do you, or someone in your family, have a story to tell?
