    Desperation, Passiveness and Inspiration.

    I am aware that my insights about this topic will not win unanimous consent, and I am perfectly okay with that. I prefer to pay the price of losing one hundred readers in order to help one single immigrant to shift into an inspired, victorious mode, rather than have a thousand immigrants just skim through […]

    Understand and overcome loneliness

    When I decided to experiment immigration, I unknowingly signed up to experience the most intense feeling of loneliness ever!

    Don’t let them bother you, they don’t know!

    I will share something that still manages to disturb me a little, even though I know the reason behind it, but it used to really turn me off, depress me and make me doubt myself and my choice, especially when I was vulnerable. I’m sharing this because I would like to help you prepare for […]

    I will always be an immigrant

    [et_pb_section bb_built=”1″][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.83″] A few weeks ago, I attended an event at an ELT (Enhanced Language Training) class, where I was able to speak about my experience as an immigrant. The class was a group of highly educated newcomers, and I was very excited to share my enthusiasm about my immigration experience with them. […]
