Respect for immigrants
Hello everyone sorry I have not been able to write in a while I have been pretty busy with school and everything and I still have to go to my neighbors apartment to use the internet. Anyway my topic for this post is something that I have been thinking about since I got here. This experience has made me really appreciate how people can move anywhere and create a life for themselves. Especially if they do not know the language because I am sure moving from say America to England could be difficult but just knowing the language would make such a difference. Here I have taken some Chinese but not know enough to be able to ask for and get anything I want or need from a restaurant or store. Even eating lunch here can be a huge challenge. So for anyone who has moved from anywhere to a different place without fully knowing the language they have my deepest respect. I know there are a lot of immigrants in the United States but I never realized how hard of a time they had until I lived in a foreign country. It truly is amazing to me.
