Soccer saved me

Update: 2020-02-23

Description

As a newly arrived immigrant kid in the USA, I felt out of place in high school. I felt that I didn't belong there until I found out that they had a soccer team. In this episode I tell you how my experience as a soccer player for my high school team helped me feel this sense of belonging.
