1. 1. Being able to speak English to everyone
2. I can own my dog, and I do not need to pay a tax for it
3. Not being able to hang my laundry out to dry on a Sunday
Being South African, we love the outdoors and utilize it for more than just socializing and exercising. This was the biggest adjustment by far, because I had to take into consideration the community, before my own customs.
4. Sour Patch Kids
5. Freedom to Immigrate without a quota system
6. My Family
You do not realize it, but you will miss your family more than ever. They are a constant rock that are now across an ocean and six hours behind. It is hard to speak to them, and it is hard to find someone to rely on like your family.
