This essay is about my life experiences when I moved from Jordan to the United States. At the age of seven I moved to Amman Jordan with my family. I have been living in Jordan for a long time and have not become a Jordanian citizen, but it is a second home for me. I didn't think it was difficult to live in Jordan like others who find it a difficult life experience. I have learned that living away from my country can be a truly interesting and unforgettable life experience. The society and culture were not much different from my culture. I made many new friends and they are still my friends today. What I miss most about living in Jordan is being able to leave the house, walk to a nearby Marketplace store, and walk to school.

Get Original EssayWhen I moved from Jordan to the United States for 10 years in 2009, I experienced culture shock. I felt so frustrated, nostalgic (for Jordan), nervous and unhappy with my surroundings. It was very difficult for me to live in the United States and deal with people who were not like me. One of the culture shocks I encountered in the United States was food because living in a new environment made it difficult for me to adjust to food, especially since there are a lot of fast food restaurants in the United States compared to Middle Eastern countries. The second factor that struck me was the language. I had no idea what people were telling me. It was really difficult dealing with people who didn't always speak my language. Learning English was a big challenge for me and even though I don't speak it that well, I can say that I am proud that I can understand and speak it now. My experiences living in the United States ultimately shaped who I am today and how I perceive the world. I have learned that welcoming a new culture adds a different dimension to me. It helps me be more open and accepting of the way others do things, and it also allows me to see a different side of life. For example, I spent more time in nature than I had ever spent before, I also tried food I had never heard of, and I learned their language. I've learned that my perspective, ideas, and way of doing things only really change when I live in a new country. Additionally, I gain a sense of accomplishment by moving to the United States. It took me out of my comfort zone with all the fears. It allows me to have the ability to control and change my circumstances. Furthermore, I can make life happen despite challenges, fears and expectations because challenges allow me to thrive and the challenge of moving to the United States not only allows me to see a different country but also creates opportunities for fulfillment on the field. levels. I now realize that moving to the United States has a positive impact on my life because it helps me learn more about myself than I ever have before and realize my potential and my ability to adapt and embrace my new environment.
