Located 22,000 kilometers from Paris, Wallis and Futuna is the French territory with the highest rate of emigration relative to its population. Living on the other side of the world, far from family and traditional pressures, is a lifeline for some, and a wrenching experience for others. But all have developed strategies to adapt, to combat homesickness, and to bring a little bit of Oceania into their daily lives.
