Publisher description
Patricia Eyamba built a prosperous life in Nigeria. She started her career as a journalist, steadily climbed the ranks at a global non-governmental organization (NGO), and even founded a successful international catering business. Despite them both being well into middle age, she and her husband decided to give it all up so that their son would have a greater global perspective.As new arrivals in Canada, they soon realized that, even in a country known for its diversity, they were still going to struggle. Her family smiled too much and spoke too loudly. She couldn't find a job as easily as she thought, and she didn't even know how to ride a bus. They may have been lioness and lion in Nigeria, but in Canada they were like two kittens-vulnerable and in need of help.I Have Come A Long Way is a heartfelt and witty account of what it means to start all over again. This is a story of resilience, relationships, self-determination, and connection. Most of all, it is an inspiring reminder that you can make it anywhere as long as you never stop believing in yourself
