since we are on the subject of migration
June 26th, 2006
Have you ever thought of migrating to another country? I have.
I was in Sydney at its lovely harbour seated on a bench with hot coffee in my hands and beautiful blue skies and lovely weather, the quiet hum of distant traffic occasionally punctuated by seagulls screaming like little children at scraps of food tossed to them. In the distance to my right was the Opera House and in front were boats and ships ploughing through the calm waters. This idyllic scene inspired thoughts of living in this land of plenty to breeze through my mind. “How nice to be able to live in this country”. Hmmmm. A huge ferry boat let out its passengers and an old Caucasian lady passed by, turned to me, and said pointedly, “Why don’t you go back to Vietnam?!”
And there and then my dream evaporated in the cruel Australian sunshine.
LOL.
I wonder, guys, have you ever thought of migrating to another country? Which country? For what reasons? Or if you could migrate anywhere in the world where would you go and why?
Dont worry, I wont brand you “Quitters”.
