My Life in America

Joao Santos

 

My life in America has been very good because most of the things I thought I could do I have done. Of course, there are still some important things to be realized.

Before I come here, I had no clue of what I was going to do to live in a different country with a different language, different culture, different customs, etc. I certainly knew that I was going to do some kind of hard work, one of those that the American people didn't want to do.

Since I arrived, I've been working in different places like restaurants, landscape companies and nursing homes. I work hard every day but I'm very happy to have a job, make money and be able to take care of my family.

Every day I feel like my life is getting better because besides doing a lot of work I've been able to learn more English and hopefully in the future I can go to college and become a professional.
