Question 1
In the year 1673 I came to New France. That year was the most fortunate year for my life
as it gave the opportunity to live a better life and spared my never-ending wretched life and lean
clothes. In France basically my daily life was associated with daily labours. I tried to make
money from my daily earning but it was not enough to make a settled life. Therefore, most of the
days were spent in searching for better jobs. I had the physical ability and the skill of a daily
labour but the situation in France was not suitable for all. Often, my masters ignored us to pay
the daily wages and made us slave in such a manner. I was single during my early phase in
France. Somehow, I managed to board myself in a ship and wished to get a better life with better
dreams. The year 1673 was a turning point of my life because I landed on a new land with loads
of aspirations. Many of my friends visited New France before me and their story might be strong
enough to crave towards New France. Job was not a problem in New France and enormous
support from the emperor made it easier for people who wanted to settle in New France1. I got a
service to build houses near the ocean and it seemed to be fortunate enough for my fate.
Nevertheless, the fear of native attacks was always posed a serious concern for me as my French
friends were always told stories about the fearsome and ferocious nature of the natives in New
France. Though it never undermined my aspiration to make more money and changed my future.
It could be stated that despite of having affection for my motherland, New France gifted me a lot.
At least I got proper dresses to wear and enough food to digest. It seemed to be a heaven for me
that made me more confident to turn my New France phase a lucky day for me.
