I moved to San Diego in June 2018 because my husband was relocated by his company. At first, I was excited but also nervous. I didn’t have any experience living abroad and my English skills were so limited. I resigned from my job so I worried about my career and was also concerned about how to make money by myself ("make money by myself" is perfectly correct grammatically. However, it's a little unclear. Perhaps, "earn a living independently" or "start my career from scratch") in the U.S. However, things got better. I have been a freelance graphic designer since then. I realized I really like to work from home. Also, I have taken an ESL online class since the beginning of this year. It has helped me a lot. I have learned a lot from teachers and classmates. I finally feel more confident when I speak English and get more comfortable in this society. For me, it’s a kind of achievement because I always hoped to improve my English previously in my life. Life always gives us different tests, and I’m satisfied with the results of my current life.
