Unlike barack obama i was actually born in kenya. I move today paris where i grew up and when i was 17, i decide today move to the United States for College Going from paris, france, not to paris, texas, but to houston, texas and i decided to stay in america and write about paris and other western nations. A how did you end up in houston . Basically my parents went to the university in america. Actually my roots are an american decent. My parents met at colombia in new york. That influenced on the education available in the american institutions and i wanted to broaden my horizons and move to the United States for college but also the first time i came to the United States i was 8te years old, i came to california. I was with my father who became a profess or here and fell in love with the United States and going back to france i kept thinking about america, culture, history, politics, literature, arts but definitely when i finished high school i was keen on moving to the United States
