Audioscript Welcome to the International Morning Breakfast Show with Josh Daniels. Today’s topic is Emigration. Why do people leave their home country and start a new life in another? Are they always successful? We interviewed some people from around the world for their opinions. Speaker 1: I emigrated to the States after college. I just wanted to get out of Ireland and see something new. I landed in California and loved it. Now, 15 years later, I really feel settled. All my friends are here in California, I have a good job and I just love the American lifestyle. You know, the longer you stay in a country, the more difficult it becomes to go back to where you came from. Handbook telc English A2·B1 35
