I am doing some research about our Bolivian community in Arlington, VA, as I am getting ready to apply to different Law Schools around the VA and MD area. I feel that your letter will help me write my personal statement, which is required by most Law School programs. I came to the USA on a scholarship, awarded to me by "Tahuichi," to play soccer and learn English at Saint Benedict's Preparatory School in Newark, NY in 1993, at the age of 14. I did the four years of High Shool at SBP, then, was awarded an academic and athletic scholarship to Saint Francis University of Pennsylvania, where a obatined a (B.S.)Bachelor's degree in Business Management. Now, I would like to become an Attorney at Law, specialized in immigration law to help the community, particularly our Bolivian community, just like my friend Dan Park, Attorney at Law who practices in Alexandria VA, does. Please feel free to email me if you have any comments or questions. Thank you. David Diaz wddst2@hotmail.com Great story!

Im from California, am a Mexican-American 18 year old male. My girlfriend came here to LA with her family in 2003 but they dont'nt find it home here. For me i taugh that California was the home for all immigrants from diffrent parts of central or south america, but when my girlfriend told me that she may move to Virginia and i have done a little reasearch my self now i know why. She is from Cochabamba as well, My main question is she is about to graduate from high school smart girl only A's and B's I got fair grades to but she is much smarter. But i can go to college beacuse i was born here and she is an immigrant. She gets alot of offers in mail or in the phone but when they ask for her social or status here in america they hang up on her. I really want to help her but i dont'nt know how? I know by getting marry with her is a start but we are both really young and want to explore other options before we make such a commitment. Please in your article you showed me you know alot about Bolivians and you showed alot of support and care alot. Please if u know of some method contact me at my email thanks for your help..

I am interested in transnational identities, specifically with Bolivian-Americans. Also, I will travel to Cochabamba on May 14 for seven weeks, so I would be glad/honored to be a medium of sorts for anyone trying to get in touch with their families, wanting to send items home, etc. -Kathleen Bobbio- Master's Candidate; Department of Geography; Virginia Tech I enjoyed your article, and was inquiring if you were going to host another meeting.
