Description and Message:
Just need to know if I'm answering the question?
I would talk about how the food we eat is different and they may not have access to a lot of ingredients they use, how they could feel isolated and alone without many people who would speak their language. How they may feel embarrassed or scared to go out with their traditional dress especially if they are Muslim women and wear burkas.
I would word all of this more appropriately, just checking to see if I'm addressing the question correctly?
Thank you!
