Here is a new and interesting website for immigrants landing in NY. The author of the book, Mr. Vedat Akman has created a place for immigrants to gain knowledge from those who have arrived before them and a nice feature allowing current immigrants to share their stories online.
I believe that regardless of where an immigrant goes, the basic feelings and reactions are often the same. So do utilize this new resource to support your acculturation process and explore what similarities there are between yourself and other immigrants to the US.
And most definitely utilize their cool posting feature and share your personal courage, strength and hope. By doing so you will not only learn about yourself, you will also be a shining example for others!
Much success to the team at New NY Crossroads and welcome to the web!
