Business isnt doing so well
My family and I own a shoe making business and it isnt doing so well. I am a business person and want to go to america to make more money because I'm not making enough. I'm taking my sister with me to meet my brother in america where he has his business which is going really well. I am also hoping to claim some of the land in the west to start harvesting my own crops. -
Start Packing
Its been a year since I considered going to America and today I am getting prepared to leave tomorrow. Today I am startinng to pack and finishing my plan on how long my trip will take. I am thinking of bringing money, some of my valuables, and clothes. I will bring my valuables and sell them for money. I am hoping to use some of the money I have now, to get on the boat and sail to america. After getting to america I will stay at a hotel for a while while my sister and I find my brother. -
The big day
Finally today I am leaving to america. My Mother and Father are going to stay here and take care of their business here and once we have a stable business in america they will travel there to help out. I am pakcing the last of the things I am going to wait at the doc for the boat. -

Business has been good, just as i expected, but to expand it we will need to go westward and claim some of the land, for the business as well as the crops we are planning to harvest
