As the United States continues to argue over the future of illegal immigrants traveling across its borders, I went on a journey to discover what hardships people crossing the border from Tijuana must face.
I worked at a soup kitchen, where I came into contact with many poor citizens who had recently arrived in Tijuana. One of the people I served was a Guatemalan (危地马拉人) named Juan, who washed cars for low pay in the US. After we spoke for 10 minutes, Juan introduced me to his girl- friend, a local stripper (脱衣舞女) who offered to give me a free lap dance (热舞) if I ever de-cided to visit the club across the street. I certainly didn't need to respond to this.
I also visited a shelter for the recently deported (驱逐) and those who have recently arrived in Tijuana from other Mexican states. Tijuana is home to more than 1.5 million people and is populat-ed by many migrants(移居者) who arrive and leave mostly for reasons of employment.
Having dinner at the shelter, I talked with those who planned to stay the night. Seated at my table was a man in his 40s. He had recently been deported from Los Angeles for not having the proper legal documentation (证明文件).The only belongings he carried with him were a few clothes and an album filled with pictures of his wife and three daughters in Los Angeles. I was surprised by how open he was in sharing his story. I feel bad for not learning his name before I left.
Returning to my country on the final day of my trip awakened a strange feeling inside me. I went on this trip with an open mind and heart and was given the chance to communicate with so many different people that I wouldn't have met in my everyday life. I felt guilty for taking so many things for granted, while people a few hundred miles away are already satisfied with the simpler things that they have.
