From people who came through it
“I was in the same place eighteen months ago. I remember my degree not recognised like it was yesterday. My kids say I'm back. The bad days get further apart. Hang on.”

You will hear your accent in recordings and cringe. That is okay too. The thing I wish I had known is that the fear gets smaller not because you 'get over it' but because you do the thing anyway, over and over, until your body stops expecting the worst. Find one person who gets it. For me it was Mason. And go dancing. Your body remembers how to be happy even when your head is busy worrying.”
Amber Ferry · been through immigrating and starting over abroad“For whoever is where I was: Not that long ago, about a year, that was me. The first winter. That was my life. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. x”
Delivery driver in Derby · been through immigrating and starting over abroad“Cuando llegas a un país nuevo, todo es extraño. El idioma, las costumbres, la comida. Te sientes perdido. Yo también. Pero poco a poco, vas encontrando tu sitio. No te compares con los demás. Cada uno tiene su ritmo. Busca ayuda. Habla con gente que haya pasado por lo mismo. Y no te olvides de tu idioma, de tus raíces. Eso te mantendrá entero.”
