This is like a crossword clue with no answer, just designed to mess with your mind.
Trying to make sense of it, it appears to be the case that the reason for performing this activity, whatever it may be, is that the author was unable to provide YYY with accommodation. This implies fairly clearly that the action of camper en croix did not enable the author to provide this accommodation. It might be quite instructive to see whether what she says afterwards does or does not imply anything about the living arrangements of the author and YYY.
Maybe camper en croix means "I went off (décamper?) to speak to the local priest" in Haitian idiom?
I'm joking, in the sense that we just can't know without further clues or someone from Haiti or familiar with Haitian French (I'm not sure the word "patois" is PC these days) providing insight. |
