At my 21 years old, I've experienced more than I've could imagine and not that all as I want to.
I was born in Casablanca, Morroco in 1993, my parents had to work hard, as all parents have to, so my first years i growed up with my grandparents, who still the most important persons in my life nowdays.
When I was 5, my sister had to move to France and since I came with my parents to my city now, Barcelona I didn't saw her again.
We came to Barcelona when I was 6, but my sister didn't joined us after 2 years living here.
To be honest, it wasn't easy to come a to new country, but it has been the best expierience in my life, and thanks to it I am who I am now.
My first year in spain, was hard, I had to live without my parents, with 6, in a new school, new friends, new home, new country. But I really enjoied the opportunity that was givven to me, there are many people that don't have even the chance to start a new life, so I am greatfull for everything.
Once I started living with my parents, it was not easy at all, they found a job, but it was not enough to rent a house for the three of us at th moment, so we had to rent a room in a apparttement for the three of us, at least we could stay together, more than what we had at the beggining, so for me it was perfect.
And of course I could go school and start to learn everything about my new place. And to cann help the family I started helping my mum with some jobs that she found, so that she could work in different places, and with my help she wasn't that tired.
I'll never forget the times I saw mum criying in silence and could not do anything to change it.
When my sister arrived here, we could get a house finally, and the family was together again....
...Many thing happened since then, now I am 21, I am studying Criminology and Law, not because I want to work with CSI, not because I want to be a lawyer, just because are the unique careers where I found that I can understand how society works and what are the rules that make us live the way that we do...
