How Coming To America Affected My Family
My journey began 10 years ago, when my family moved to the United States. Family friends that already made the move from Bulgaria to America, tried to explain what it would be like on the other side of the ocean but failed to do so.
Coming to America affected my family and me in some bad ways and some good ways.
I missed my extended family and friends still to this day. The people I used to see every day were not near anymore. After a few months the everyday Skype’s went from once a day to once a week and then to once a month. Work absorbed my parents, they both worked multiple jobs just to keep the dream alive.
We all knew the reality of a continent separation. I get to talk to family members from time to time, and when my birthday comes
