The type of immigration was internal migration. Me and my mother migrated to Florida from Massachusetts. My mother was 26 years old, while I was 5 years old. My mother was not making enough money, as we lived in a one-income household. In Florida, there were plenty of jobs for her profession. We migrated to Saint Cloud, Florida by car. We didn’t live in an ethnic enclave, and it felt like we were the only non-hometown family. When we were coming to Florida, we decided traveling in a car because it was cheaper than flying. After moving in 2005, we moved again in 20010 to Mission, Texas because Florida wasn’t working out like we wanted it to financially. In 2011 we moved back, because we needed to support my grandparents who had arrived in Florida.
