“Thank you very much for the "Life in the USA" website. It has helped me to understand some things which have become frustrating for me after moving to the USA from the Czech Republic. It has been a year since we moved here and I thought there was something wrong with me, but after reading the website and reading about American culture and American World view I realized that it is just a normal process of integrating into the US environment. ” . . . .

If you can observe American-born people who are strangely attached to memories they get from their parents, there are also young people who feel far from home, and with the desire to maintain connections with the land they came from. Italians are the perfect example.
A lot of young women and men come from Italy to the USA every year. In the Mediterranean peninsula they call this migration “brains escape”, because they are not poor people looking for fortune like in the past. Most of them are qualified persons looking for a real job opportunity or a fruitful experience abroad. Generally they are 30-something, with educational qualification, and a lot of energy.

My dad is the best dad in the world, because he is my dad. If you ask me what he looks like,
I’ll say, around 5 feet 10 inches tall, Asian, wears glasses, and rounding a little around the
midsection (to put it nicely). But I probably wouldn’t tell you about the things I guard in my
little safe box called Memory.

Readers Say . . . “Thank You for your wonderful website. I am from India and about to marry my boyfriend (Matt) who is an American. It helped me find a lot of information on American Culture, values, etc. I got all the information that I needed on one website without having to browse through a number of websites for different sets of information. Thank You once again!” . . . . Rinkie, India
“Thank you for your site. I am from Ukraine, I've got a home-work to write a great
composition about the contemporary USA. So I've got everything I needed on this
topic.”
“I found lifeintheusa web site recently. I wish I knew it long time ago. It's
the best information I ever had since I came to the country. Thank you very
much.”
“Thanks for taking the time and effort to put such a wealth of resources on the web. My
family is hosting an exchange student from Costa Rica and your site has the answers to a lot
the questions she has (and has not!) asked about American culture.”
