Migrated about my family 

Hello everyone, welcome today I am going to present my blog about my experience when migrating as everyone already knows, migrating is going from a town or a rural area to a city or a district, in my experience when doing this I can tell you that On this journey or on this trip they are going to have many difficulties, such as starving cold, even some families lose people, but as in my case, myself and my family, when emigrating, we had to sleep under the rain and other more difficulties and all this so just to seek a more stable way of life is to say to seek economic stability one of the things that affected my family migrating is that my brother contracted a disease for which the cure has not yet been discovered is also an ugly experience Since going hungry is not something we would like to go through, but when we arrived in the city it was not easy for us since my parents and I had to work, that is to say that I came here since I was 14 years old from that age and I started working and it is not that I worked in an office but that I had to work sometimes in the street sometimes selling bread from a bakery that is not even mine but over time my family began to do better my father got a job to count 2 months after arriving then he already had an income at 6 months my mother started working as a teacher with which we already had a little more income than my father started working at abdón calderón military school in which it was not easy for me since the education of a field is not the same as that of a city after a year I already adapted to how the studies were then and things began to go well for me Dad was promoted and thus they managed to buy a house a car for my mother after two years they fired her so my father began to be a little tighter with debts since he had to cover my mother's expenses but this did not last a lot since at 3 months he found a job In a private company in which she became a manager, after 5 years of living like this my parents started with a drug company in which until now they are doing very well and so on until I get to where I am today, what I want you to understand With this experience it is that things will not necessarily always go well, but sometimes things have to go wrong so that in the future they improve. 

Hi my name is Alejandro Mora and im going to talk about how i migrate and everything, how i adapt to the situation.

Migration is the movement of either people or animals from one area to another. Look up in the trees, where you might see a Monarch butterfly make a stop on its migration to Mexico. Migration can be used for the journey from one place to another or for the act of movement.

Okay, after this introduction, im going to tell you how i go to another place, all my life i live in Ecuador, Valle de los Chillos, there were all my friends, like Matias, Sebastian, Mateo, and there was some of the principal thing i love in this life, that was my soccer team with my coach and teammates and thats something that i appreciate a lot, and also my grandma that i lived with her all my youth, and thats something that makes me sad sometimes.

When I arrived here on Guayaquil was so difficult to adapt because everything was so different, the people here are so different in every way because all the jokes, the activities that they do, the teachers, and all the school, the system its different, but for good luck all the teachers help me and they saw that i was really confused and that was good, my house was different but its so pretty and a little bit smaller, after that some people started to talk to me thats makes me so happy because i was there so alone, i met some people, Marcos, Cristian, Alejandro, and Martina, they incluide me in their group of friends and they are inviting me to hangout with them and try to include me with the classes and helping me with everything in classes. But anything of that makes me feel better because everytime i miss everything, my friends, my family, and also my grandma that its the most thing that i love.

My grandfather told me that i have to be a strong-minded because that was not going to be easy and, told me that evetything of that situation is a good experience of life because that help me to be a better person, and makes more strong-minded.

I think that the experience its not so good because lose everything, friends, family, but that makes you strong, because that makes you think different and that help you to be different and react different to every situation that you are living because everything change and you have to adapt and thats somenthing that everyone in one moment we have to do and in that moment we will appriciate that life lesson.

PERSONAL BLOG

Hello my name is Karen and today I want to tell us a personal experience that change all of my style, and bring me new opportunities to have a better life with my family.

Last holiday I visited my grandfather who told me about my family's move and how it affected us in many ways, when I was little I lived in a rural area, it was quite far from the city so I didn't have many comforts, but we never lacked anything, my parents decided that moving to the city would be a better option since we would have a better education and better opportunities, but we didn't know the damage this would cause, when we left my uncles and grandparents stayed in the countryside, for this we came to the city. the biggest problem was that my parents did not find work easily and we had no economic stability for a long time, my brother and I were very small but it affected us to see our parents so stressed and worried about everything that happened in the house, meanwhile my grandmother was very sick and got worse. When we returned to our old house, Grandma was better and everything was fine.

On the other hand, arriving in the city brought us some benefits such as access to better education, access to hospitals, which we did not have in the countryside because we were outside the urban area. In my opinion it is a better opportunity to grow as a person because this way we have the opportunity to be more competitive professionally speaking, on the other hand our lifestyle has changed radically, Our dawn started at 4 am to go to see the farm animals, we started with the cows which were taken out to eat grass, then we continued with the chickens which we cleaned the corral and took the eggs. At 7am we all met in the kitchen to have breakfast that my mom prepared with my grandmother, then my brother and I got ready to go to school which was a few hours away, we had classes until 1:30 pm, we left the school to finish helping with things around the house. now in the city everything is different, the school is 15 minutes away from home, we start class at 8 am and it ends at 1:30 am. it is a more flexible schedule that allows us to do more things and we have the time to practice sports and take extra courses, life is quite different, it was difficult the first day since I didn't know anyone but little by little I got used to the city life.

In conclusion, we must be understanding and empathetic with people who are settling down from scratch because we do not know how complicated it can be and the problems for which they had to leave everything behind and leave their home.

The migration affect 

By:Sebastián Angos 

Hi my name Is Sebastián Angos and in this text we can speak about my experience in immigration but first we start with what migration is and it could be said that it is when a group of people leaves their native country to travel to another country for an improved life, sometimes they leave because of the need for money or because of that the same country forces it because it is so bad so they prefer to leave there 

Within migrating we can find different effects, one of them is that the people of this country lose work for the reason is that the people who migrate offer to work for a lower value and this benefits the owners of companies or small businesses since it is a lower cost and thus obtain a greater profit and for this reason loses the labor force in the country The other affectation is that you cannot find a job and a financial thing would be to support your family and also by the same population since they will feel threatened by taking their job

My opinion about migration is that I think that if it is something very necessary because we have money problems or family problems I think it is a good method but I also think that in part it is bad since first there are people who migrate to other countries but not He does nothing, he just waits for the country to give them things away so they do not help the production of money within the country and elsewhere it is bad since they take away the work of people from this country due to the fact that they will wait for more work cheap and beneficial to the owners and thus they lose jobs and create more poverty within the country

Well in conclusion what I can say is that it is a very complicated issue to deal with so we cannot keep it and say if it is bad or good since it has its affection in two parts, well I think that if we want to migrate we should go with the idea of ​​trying to grow the work of the country we are going to, not to be given gifts or beg in the streets taking advantage of politics, well this has been my opinion of migration in all areas

Migration and the Search of a new life

Migration and the Search of a new life                                                               

 

The Migration is the movement of either                                                                                                  people or animals from one area to another              

Some people migrate and move to another country looking a new life and job opportunities.

The migration is caused because the economic position of the country or the economy position of the habitants and people. 

Causes of migration:

Lack of services                      Lack of safety           High Crime                        Crop failure   

Drought                                  Flooding                    Poverty                             War

 

The more usual cause is the poverty of the people and habitants

People that does not earn much money or are unemployed, are obliged to get out of his country looking job opportunities and a possibility to have one good and better life.

 

Risks or Problems of Migrating

Migration is accompanied by other phenomena such as Insecurity, Poverty, Social Inequality, Education, which represent adverse scenarios for social well-being and therefore require immediate attention.

 

What are the main problems of migration?

When they reach their destination they often face difficulties in accesing, health care, housing, education or employment. They may become easy targets for abuse, extorsion and explotation due to a lack of a protective family network, a lack of information or missing documents.

Common Symptoms in migrants are sadness, crying, stress, the feeling of insecurity, and rejection by the native population.

The immigration process affects all ages emotionally, but children are especially vulnerable

Stance

 My position or opinion is that Migration is a solution or a way to forget the old life, to start from scratch with the posibility of getting a stable job, tus transforming ourselves and becoming a new and better life, I think that the natives should be understandble with migrants and help them in their fight for a better future instead of rejecting them and making their lives more difficult. There are bad people who cannot bear the idea of having immigrants in their country and doing whatever it takes to make them leave and make life miserable for them, the natives must understand their situation and help them find a new and better life.

In these times I have noticed that people migrate, many times to other countries, cities. However, one that is not normally talked about is moving from a rural area to an urban area, it sounds relatively easy to do this, however, it takes many things with it. A long time ago when I was a little girl, my family and I had to move from a beautiful place such as the countryside, this given that the living conditions in that place had become complicated, we used to obtain several of our own food, but unfortunately the climate was not suitable for the plantations. At the same time, the sale of these foods was an important livelihood for my family, so over time this got worse economically. It was becoming more and more difficult to bring money home and to be able to return to our normal life.

One of the questions that many people have is that if the lifestyle changes when we move from the country to the city, in my case the change was not dramatic, since I basically grew up in the city, so I did not feel a sudden change in my life, my grandfather has told me that his life changed drastically since now his work was even more arduous than in the field, since to have a good quality of life it is necessary to earn more money than we spend, Food and housing were even more expensive than in the fields, so they thought they would have to go back to the fields, but my family tried even harder because with the passage of time the field work would be more complicated.

For this we had to define if the change that took place in this period would be good or bad, in this aspect there are two options, since at the time some examples of things that benefited my family were positively and negatively affected; Having basic services close and accessible to anyone such as hospitals, schools, among others, also one of the most notorious was the job opportunities they obtained, since when they arrived in the city their chances of getting a job were much higher than in the field, The disadvantages that my family suffered from this change was that they had to adapt to a new way of life since groceries were even more expensive than in the countryside, so they had to work even more until they could adapt to the rhythm of the city. They also suffered from the lack of tranquility that arises in the city since people are very active from early in the morning until late at night.

In conclusion, people who wish to migrate from a rural area to an urban area, should carefully review the pros and cons of this decision since this entails several things that can directly affect a lifestyle, make the best decision to have a life fully envisioning the future in various aspects. Both places have their advantages and disadvantages, so people should do what suits them best.

Hi grandpa, I will move from my home to a new one in the city And I will explain my point of view before moving on since I will go to the city tomorrow, my point of view on this is a good one since I have the emotion of being in a better colleague with new friends, the people who have gone to the city They have told me that in the city there are many good schools there, but that they are very difficult to enter since most of them are prestigious, but I think it will be a great and good change in our lifestyle as a family, I was really afraid, But my dad found a new job there so we will not have to try with the money, it will be how to go from the past to the future because to there it is all advanced and here we are like cavemen because we are from the country and there are not many things here, there are good Like bad people in the city and my mom told me not to trust anyone but my friends and my family, being in the city will be incredible, new house, new life, new technological things, new friends and new school everything is new over there and I know it will be instead of me bad moment to a new and good one.

Well, we already passed from the field of the city, grandfather :) but the pass became so moved that I did not have time to write my diary but a week has passed and what we went to the city and our new house, everything went out bin there was no Many problems the journey lasted about 8 hours but everything went the best way I think that going from the city to the country may be difficult but it is not as you say the travel and the passage from there to have the new house and continue with our lives as if we were in the country but in the city. The advantage of getting used to this new life and moving is that migrating from the city to the country is more advantageous than problematic since there are too many things in the city you can find anything here it was like taking off a blindfold and here Everything is beautiful, I entered my new colleague and I already made 3 new friends, the people here are good more than bad so my security is good so to speak, also another advantage is that my father said that they pay well in their work and that My mom said that if she wants to work, she has many job opportunities here in the city than in the country, you can use public transport more often or also have a car, the best thing here is that there are more doctors and more schools to learn, you have one great variety of opportunity and benefits here.

The disadvantages of migrating from the countryside to the city is that here everything is very busy and in a hurry, there are zones in the city that are very dangerous, they already tried to gnaw at my mother when going shopping, they also told me my parents that here Everything is more expensive, the purchases were expensive, the taxes are also more expensive and if my dad had a good job or probably we wouldn't have a house, another disadvantage is that there is a lot of smoke from buses and cars here and my mother said that at Going to school I put a scarf to avoid getting sick and finally and the most important is that animals are also affected here: c because smog kills them and there is a lot of garbage here for them, remember whoever reads this there are disadvantages when going to the city ​​and here I informed him of which they exist when I live here.
