I came to Germany when I was 14 years old. My mum and brother had already been there for 4 years when my dad and I could finally join them. I will always remember the day I had to wave my mother goodbye at the airport. It was heart-breaking! But four years later, we had our happy family reunion. I have always dreamed of becoming a successful woman. And Germany made it happen. Although it was difficult to integrate and adapt at the beginning, mostly because of the language barrier and the numerous uncomfortable questions people asked me that made me feel like a social misfit - So, you are immigrant? Why did your parents come here? Do you now have German citizenship? Do you feel more German or Vietnamese? - I have worked hard to integrate into the society and I am now studying electrical engineering in a German university. My family is extremely loving and supportive. I am glad they taught me great values. Thanks to them, I give and share without expecting in return. It doesn't matter where you are from or where you live because true love should come from the heart and has no border. If you ask me whether I feel more German or Vietnamese, I will answer I just feel loved. It took me a while but now I am proud to say: I am a migrant.
