Hello.
In the beginning, I'd like to say that this is only a discussion, and I'd like to listen to your opinions and advice.
For those who don't know me.
I'm from Ukraine. I'm blind.
I was in the US 8 years ago. I liked this country.
It's easier for me to move to Russia, but it's not for me. Why? Because there is no freedom. Poor attitude towards people with disabilities. Basically, if a person sees a blind person, he says "Why are you on the street? You need to stay at home."
In Ukraine or Russia, I can't fully realize myself.
When I communicated with the Americans, I was shocked, how they relate to life and to other people. If I'm told about America that this is a bad country, Trump is a bad president, etc., I know in any case that people in America are good. I know that there will always be someone in America who can help, if I need help, if I feel bad on the street, etc. I know that people will not pass by.
Since childhood, I have a good English accent. I did not learn to pronounce English sounds, I easily do it. Now when I speak with native speakers of English, in the first seconds they think that I am a resident of Britain or America. But I have a bad vocabulary.
Now I choose between England and America. I know that it is better for me to live in these countries, but I would like to make initial conclusions now.
In England, there is something that does not exist in America, and in America there is something that does not exist in England.
If you live in England or America, I would be happy to talk with you. You can express your opinion in this topic, or write me on Skype volibor4444, or on my WhatsApp +380660871027.
Now I will describe what I like and don't like in England and America.
Mentality:
In both these countries, in my opinion, people are better than in Russia. In Russia there are good people, but not so many, as in England or America.
About friendship. It seems to me that in England it's easier to find friends. I will say that for me, friendship is a good relationship between people, when they are ready for much for each other's sake.
I heard that in America, if you said that we are friends, that does not mean what I said above. The next day, an American can forget about it.
I heard that in England people have a character trait that I don't like. If you cry in the street, people will be afraid to approach you and ask what happened, because the English are afraid to interfere in their personal lives, personal problems. I like that in America, you will be approached in any case.
Discrimination:
It seems to me that in England there is more discrimination than in America.
I'd like to be an actor of scoring. In America's animation studios are ready to help me, in England I haven't received good answers.
For the blind:
When I contacted the organization to help the blind in England, I received a response quickly. I was offered a guide dog, but I said that I needed someone person to help me move about the city, I said that I was willing to pay for it. They agreed to help me when I arrive.
When I went to the organization to help the blind in America, I did not get an answer.
I ask you to tell me about the opportunities for the blind in your country. What services are available, what are the problems, etc.
Children:
I heard that in England and America, children don't have freedom. In Russia, children can move around freely in the city, buy products in the store, communicate with whom they want, etc. If I want to communicate with a person who is 12 years old, for example, I will need permission from him parents, etc.
Free possession of weapons:
In the US, free possession of weapons. How do you feel about this? How do you feel about being shot in the middle of the street?
Climate:
In America, I can find any climate. If I live in England, I would like to live in London, but in London the climate is not the best for me.
Immigration and citizenship:
In my opinion, getting permanent residence and citizenship in the US is easier than in England.
I can't say about everything at once. For this reason, there may be other messages. But I'm ready to hear from you.
Thank you.
