“My mom lived in Vietnam for the first twenty years of her life.”

My mom lived in Vietnam for the first twenty years of her life. She lived with her family, and the only languages that she was able to speak was Chinese and Vietnamese. At this time, she was looking for a job because she didn't have one at the time. When she realized that there were no jobs available, she decided to move to America for more job opportunities and then the experience. The moment she realized she was going to go through with the plan was when she bought the plane ticket. This was because plane tickets were very expensive back then, and she didn't really have that much money.
