Over the years, families from all around the world have come to America to try to live a better life and live the American'American Dream.' My family was one of these peoplethis group when deciding we would leave Brazil and move to the United States. I never imagined myself coming to America, so that was a dream come true, especially knowing I was coming to this country as a student. We were so excited about this new adventure and the opportunities we would have, little did we know the challenges we would face along the way. Two of the challenges I had to overcome were having to learn a new language and to build new relationships.
