Date/Time: 19/4/15 (17:40-18:40)
Starbucks (W.Tennessee St.)
For this
session, I met up with Hesham, who I first met at the end of session dinner on
Friday night.
Hecham was
a student of Law in Saudi Arabia. After
trying unsuccessfully to get a job in his field, he worked for a cell phone
company. He was not happy with this and
instead wanted to travel to the US. He
put in an application and told his case worker he wanted to leave as soon as
possible.
He came
to Valdosta, Ga first, where he stayed for 10 months, learning English. After that, he transferred to CIES, where he
has been studying since January.
Hecham was dating a girl from Venezuela (also a CIES student)
and although they broke up a couple of weeks ago, they remain good friends.
Hecham told me likes the Spanish culture and would like to
visit many South American countries. He says the warmth of their culture is
like his own back home. He would also
like to learn the Spanish language and said he finds it easier to learn than
English.
Hecham’s ultimate goal is to study a masters of Law and
complete his bar exams in the US.
