Flying to America

Zakaria Ndiaye (Senegal)

 

(Translated from French)

My name is Zakaria N’Diaye.  I am 18 years old.  I came from Senegal. 

           

I came to the United States for many things like to work and to earn money to invest in my country.  Why do I want to invest in my country?  Because I see from afar people who have returned to Senegal from Europe with money but without a plan for investing. 

Now I am going to talk a little about my arrival in the United States.  Before I took the plane I was a little sad, the night of my departure I left all my best friends there. 

But thanks to God I had a good trip.  Now I am in America.  I miss everyone, particularly my mother and my little brothers.
