John Mier is a young Filipino who came to America when he was 18 years old. He used to live in Namo City with his mom, his dad, and his sister. His mom and sister moved to Daly city California a few years before he did. John admits to miss the Philippines truly; however, he does not regret have come to Daly City with his mother and sister because "it's nice outhere." John also struggles his conception of the American Dream was to have money and no worries, yet he learned through his experience in America that an easy life comes out with a lot of hard labor work.
