About the project

Each publication is an independent original work and also a draft chapter of a future book. As the manuscript develops, stories may be expanded, clarified, and combined.

This is not a step-by-step immigration guide or a story of instant success. It is an honest record of difficult decisions, mistakes, help from other people, and the gradual process of finding a place in a new country.
