8. LIVING IN THE USA Roberto came from Acapulco to New York ten years ago. At first he missed everything –
the sunshine, the food, his girlfriend. But now he has a successful business with his three brothers and his
sister. They run a soccer store in New Brunswick. Roberto’s girlfriend is now his wife, and they have two
children who go to American schools. When asked why he came to the US, Roberto says without hesitation,
‘Because I want to work hard and be successful.’ He certainly works hard. He’s at the store all day, then works
as a driver in the evening. ‘That’s why I like America,’ he says. ‘You can be what you want.’ ‘When I first came
here, I didn’t speak the language, and it was winter. It was so cold! There was snow! Now nearly all my family
are here, not only in New York, but also in California, and in Texas. We meet about once a month and have a
huge Mexican meal that takes about five hours! We’re all happy here.’
