As a result of the sterile farming land in Italy and the Homestead Act in America, I decided to move to America to live with my brother and his family.
-
Since I need money to be able to live in America, I sold the jewelry I had made in Italy for profit.
-
As soon as I found my older brother and his family, we decided to move to California to be farmers.
-
Before moving to California, my brother's son was killed in a railroad accident, but we decided to keep with our plan and move out west.
-
Even though California is a long distance away from the East Coast, we are moving for the fertile land and we are going to have a grape orchard (winery)
-
Though California has a large population, we were able to find a land to have our grape farm (winery) on.
-
While my brother works in the part of the winery that processes the grapes, the rest of his family and I work out on the farm.
-
After meeting Giovanni, an another Italian farmer (citrus farmer) in town, we got married in December.
-
After marrying Giovanni, I started living with him on his citrus farm and we sell the fruits for a living.
