IMMIGRATION STORY

Recently I visited the Maritime Museum in Fremantle and took a few photos of a statue there.

Would you like to use my photos? I suggest you create a movie telling a personal immigration story. You don’t have to use all of the photos, and you may like to crop some of them to enhance your story.

Let me know if you create something wonderful. It may be worth sharing with the world on the Level Up! blog.
