My parents immigrated from Ecuador to United States during the 1980s. My parents have told me how horrible and difficult it was to migrate by foot. They crossed through so many countries, paths, and dangers to get there. Barely any food or water to depend on. They came into this country for a better life since back in Ecuador they were not making enough money. The image above is not the exact luggage they carried but it’s an example of what they carried throughout their journey. Once they got to the United States, they stayed with some family members and got back on their feet getting a job to survive.
