Have you experience a migration?

Here’s my experience when I migrate from a rural area to this city.

I was born in rural area it was calm, when you wake up you can listen de sound of the birds, the air that I breath was nice, it smells like flowers and nature. When I was 6 years old, my family decide to go to the city because they want to have more opportunities for job and for my education, in that time I didn’t thought that migrate was the best option but since I was a child it doesn’t matter. One they we take the way and we appear in the city.

 

Talking to my grandfather last week about our migration, I know that when all my family migrate, we have problems at the beginning because all the weather was different, here in the city is too much pollution and if now we don’t care about that, when we came it cause issues to my mother and father. In the other side by the positive changes all my family can get a better job, and I am in the best high school of the city in which I learn a lot.

 

When we came it was stranger, people treat you in a different way, and all was difficult to understand because city is more developed. Here in the city people are always producing and creating new things, process, etc. In my opinion it was difficult to adapt to the city. At the begging I hate how my life change, it was so different, but after few years, when my mom ask me I if want to return to rural areas, my answer was an obviously no. Nowadays I thing that the migration that I experienced is the best option that my family choose.  

 

If you thing that I don’t miss the calm of my original place, you are crazy. Definitely rural area has the best environment to life, rural areas are calm, big, and all is natural. Talking about the event of migration if you think in my personal life or in my family life I think that city is the best place, because the objective of my family was has a developed education and job.

 

As a final thought talking in the perspective of my experience I recommend you think about you future plans, how do you feel in your original place, annalise the situation in your country and after make a decision if it is necessary to migrate and if it is the best option. I hope that my blog help you to income to that topic that is migration, and my experience can help you to choose if you were doubtful about your choose.
