Well it's been fun America but I'm moving back to Italy. I remember coming to this country and being very worried about not being accepted. I had (still do actually) a very thick Italian accent, I didn't understand the culture and I just didn't want to leave my home. My older brothers were excited and promised they would make sure I had a good experience in this new place. But it was what our Papa told me that stuck with me (my darling, where we are going everyone is welcome. you will never step foot in another country that is as hospitable like America.) and I believed him.
Two years ago my parents were killed by a drunk driver and my siblings and I never felt quite so lost before. America no longer felt like home to us but we decided to make the best of the situation and move on the best we could. Our parents wanted us to come here so we had every door open to us! They thought moving to the Land of Opportunity would give us the lives we deserved. It did. I became a marine biologist, my brothers are doctors and lawyers.
Then this country gave Trump power. He and his running mate have made it very clear that they do not like immigrants or women. I am both. For the first time since my parents died I felt scared. I still am, I'm actually petrified to speak in front of people that don't know me. THREE times since the election I have been told to go back to my own country and to "suck it up bitch" because this is how America is now. I have lived in this beautiful country for almost 20 years now and for the first time I know I don't belong here. I already have another marine biologist job waiting for me and my nonna has already found an apartment for me. My brothers will be moving back home soon as well (before Christmas, thank goodness!). So please don't worry that I'll be homeless and or Supernatural-less ;-).
I'm going to miss this country very much but I can't live in a place where I'm not wanted and or unsafe. With that said, my blogging will be a bit sporadic for the time being because I'm essentially getting my life started again. But this is what needs to be done. I truly hope all of you stay safe during these dark times and know that I'm with you. I may not physically be with you, but I can lend an ear and I'll be donating to many charities (Plan Parenthood, especially).
The dark times are slowly creeping in and for that I am truly sorry. Please stay safe and know that you are not alone. All my love to my followers (American and not).
