Is Mexico a good country to emigrate to?

I am not sure how old you are, but if you think you want to live in the U.S., you are better off visiting first or doing an exchange year at university here. (Attending all four years of a university here will be very expensive for you, as it would be for me if I decided to study in the UK). The reality of life is always different than a visit though.

Here are some things to consider before you would do anything drastic like move to a different country. It is difficult to say which country is best, but hopefully what I list below can help you eventually think of the pros and cons of both: -the US and UK, while sharing some cultural similarities, are quite different in many ways: politically, religious views, even simple every day things like attitudes about food, how to drive, sports are completely different, etc. We have very different attitudes about what "rights" are. Both countries have free speech, for example, but I think the U.S. is much more politically correct.

There are also certain "rights" that we are not willing to give up, like right to bear arms, in the name of public safety -be prepared for homesickness. I lived as a student in France, and while I loved it and made some very dear friends, I missed plenty of things about my home and family in the U.S. -healthcare system is quite different. We have excellent healthcare here, but it is expensive, and even if your employer provides you with a good insurance package, it probably doesn't cover everything -do you have the money for international student fees?

Are you willing to wait years in the green card lottery? You could also marry an American citizen, but what if your hypothetical American spouse prefers the UK? Even if you two decided to stay in the States, keep in mind that traveling to see family gets expensive and infrequent, especially if children get involved.

Are you able to obtain a work visa (they are VERY difficult to get, and it would be equally difficult for me to obtain one in the UK) -this country is not like it is in the TV shows and movies. We are a very diverse people, and Hollywood does not represent the vast majority of us well at all. You asked if Americans would dislike you living there.

Provided that you are able to live here, even if it is not permanently, I would say most Americans are more willing to accept someone from the UK than we are from other places in the world. I'll be honest and say that some of us are suspicious of people from the Mid East, and there are a few who would be outright mean to them. Some Americans also look down on immigrants from Mexico and Latin America - close-minded Americans see them as a threat to our language (even though there is no official designated language!) and to our jobs, and some even blame them for drains on the welfare system (even though only U.S. citizens qualify for welfare).

So you'll encounter a LOT of ignorance. You personally might get wisecracks from some people who assume you'll be posh or haughty, but I think that would be the worst of it. I had an English student when I taught university classes in Iowa.

He fit in just fine and quickly made lots of friends. I think my other students found him interesting, and sharing a common language makes it much easier to find a common ground. I am on a couple pen pal sites, and I always manage to make my communication and friendships with people from the UK last - again, this is where having a common language and sharing some cultural background are helpful.

Overall, you'd be fine, so don't worry too much about it. In the meantime, learn what you can about the U.S. (visit sites like Interpals or something like that to make American friends). Get a good idea of our cultural and political views via websites like CNN, or even better if you have access to a radio station like NPR (national public radio).

Visit the website for the U.S. Dept. Of State to learn more about visas and qualifications for moving/living here. It is not easy, but it can't hurt to look into it.

I hope this helps! Good luck to you.

If not, then you should stay in England. It can take a LONG time for a UK citizen to get a work visa in the US. Americans don't have anything against people who come here legally and contribute to society.

The uproar you hear about is mostly toward people who come here illegally and take advantage of "the system". Some people DO have prejudices against anyone who isn't of the same race or ethnicity, but you find that anywhere.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
