The most difficult decision
It took me a long time to decide to move to another country. It definitely wasn’t an easy choice.
First of all, I’m the father of a beautiful girl who will turn 10 this December. Leaving her behind in my hometown was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. I know her mom takes good care of her, but we were always so close—doing everything together.
I used to be a businessman in Peru, but lately, my country has become increasingly unsafe. Corruption and bad politicians have created chaos through unfair laws and reckless decisions that are slowly destroying people’s lives. One day, I became a victim of that insecurity—I was almost killed by criminals.
That was the day I realized something had to change. I couldn’t keep living in a place where fear felt normal. I needed to take action, to protect my future, and to build something better for myself and my daughter.
I was fortunate that my grandmother was Japanese, so I applied for a visa as a Japanese descendant. It felt like destiny giving me a second chance.
Now, every day in this new country, I’m not just rebuilding my life—I’m rediscovering who I am. I left behind fear and uncertainty, and stepped into a future that I’m finally choosing for myself.
Because sometimes, starting over isn’t running away—it’s the bravest thing you can do.
