I am a girl from North Korea. My name is Yun Holin and I am 16 years old. 5 years ago when I was only 11 years old, decided my parents to leave my country and be immigrant to England. I’m living now with my boyfriend “Peter” in London that is a beautiful city. We have rented a little house in a one of biggest streets. Peter is working like a carpenter and I’m going to school as a normal teenager and have many kind friends from different country and have enjoyed here.

The reason we immigrated:
We have left my country because we have had a difficult position there and lived under war. That war was between North Korea and South Korea and we experienced any blooding days. There wasn’t any democracy or human rights.
People were not satisfied about their lives and many people left their home. In this time my parents decided to move to United Kingdom. We had to flee from North Korea to save our lives, and make a better life here in England.

I want to continue my education, go to university and be an educated person. I’m getting married when I am finished with my education. And maybe get 2 children, I wish for one boy and one daughter.And try to start a little business to improve my life economically.

I’m living in London a beautiful city with most kindly people. It has about 8 million populations from thousands countries.

Weather:
London is the largest city in United Kingdom with the some distance. London has mostly wet weather and the people should carry an umbrella or rain jacket even in the summer or winter, no matter the season. Night time temperature is low and very cold in winter.
Food:
The food that is usually used which are chips and fish, pizza, and many different kind of hamburger. London’s food isn’t traditional, and we can find seldom some food from old days. There are more than 60 different national cuisines from different countries, especially from India with so many spies. Vegetarianism is also an accepted part of London restaurant, with many kind of dishes test, and it can be a good offer for people that don’t meat food.

Music:
Some of the world’s best music was the produced in United Kingdom. And people who are living in London have choices to listen diverse and culturally music. It was made up of religious music, work class, folk music, classic music, and poor that was influenced by European movement.

Still I remember very well for the first time that I came in London. I was so tired with the long travel that we had, and have to done it as soon as possible. Everything was strangers, people, language, culture, had no idea and enough information about city or culture.
Now I know how the culture I live in and the people I live with. In London lives huge populating from Asia, Europe, Africa and other countries. I think it is a positive point that we have opportunity to become familiar with different cultures, religions, and language. But it is not so easy always to have tolerance with much different kind of people. Someone with stupid idea and someone with strange behave or we are looking something that we never have seen it. Some people want to kip their culture and don’t allow the new culture. It can be a issue after the long time.
Here we have most of different entertainment with diverse culture. For example art gallery, museum, and museum with natural history and theater that can be very interested for the person that get visit here for the first time. And I like all of this and visited them for the several time
