After moving to the United States two and a half years ago my life has been a joyful ride through many different cultures. These years have taught me one thing I\u2019ve learned to be true, you learn more about your own culture when you are away from it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The best idea I had was to go home (Dominican Republic) for one week before leaving to Brazil because it has been the perfect cultural transition. I left the United States, where I have had the opportunity to live for the past 2 years. Then I got to come home and enjoy all my favorite foods, go to the places I enjoy, see my friends, and just be reminded of what a happy place this little island is!
