The aim of this paper is to analyze the feelings and emotions that some migrants living community Purépero Michoacán when they go to the United States. From an ethnographic perspective and social construction of reality, we approach approach the origin and importance of the subject. Although failure to inquire, we now know that each of migrants experience similar feelings and emotions. This may seem obvious, but not, as each migrant construct their own reality according to the role it plays in the family (father and husband), before leaving and once established. So each forging their feelings and emotions in the experience. In this process the migrant uses his own theory say Berger and Luckman (2001) is driven by common sense.
