On the move 

Hi, Victoria. I hope you remember me. My name is Valentina Gallo. You helped me and my family to get accustomed  to living in new country some years ago. You were the only one person, who impulses me to get the hang of living in America. You've helped me to overcome the cultural shock and you've amused me when I felt nostalgia for my native country, for Italy.

I want to share my impressions with you. It was  my first week in New York, so I tried To get acclimatized to the atmosphere of the USA. I had known that New York is vibrant city and cobbled streets made it more fascinating. I got a new passport so I dealt with passport issues. They were checking if it is valid or not forged. Now everything is OK)I have a lot of friends because in NY there are a big Italian ethnic group and I integrated in it. I was afraid to feel a discrimination here but, fortunately, my fears did not come true and  also I wasn’t deported. When I have free time I go for a wander, do sightseeing, laze around and get away from it all to get around discovering new stunning and flourishing places. So as you see I like my new home.

Looking forward to receiving your answer,
Valentina Gallo
