Building on the literature on transnationalism, return and home, this paper explores the relationship that young generations of Roma in Rome (Italy) develop with their parents’ and grandparents’ land of origin: Bosnia. This relationship is shaped by older generations’ memories of the ‘good old days’ in Bosnia; it also builds on first-hand experiences of contemporary Bosnia; moreover, it is embedded in the everyday experience of the Roman peripheries and of ‘nomad camps’ where the Roma live.
