I Miss My Hometown

I miss my hometown of Gdansk for many reasons. My city is very different from cities in US. I lived in a multi-family hause, such houses are common on my street. Everything we need to live is located close to our place of residence. We are within walking distance of the children's school or kindergarten. Near my neighborhood there are many small shops. We have many parks where children can play. There is well-organized public transportation,because my city is big. Many people do not have cars, and they use public transportation. My hometown of Gdansk is a very old town.Many buildings in my city are historic buildings, that are antiques. These old buildings create a unique atmosphere which is lacking in Milwaukee.

The Most Beautiful Place

J was always fascinated by the mountains. Althought I lived by the Baltic Sea , I loved the mountains more. The most beautiful place in my country for me was the Tatry. We call them the mountains in my country. In these mountains there is a nice City Zakopane. Zakopane lies in a large valley where there is salubrious climate. This small town has some unforgettable charm, where time flows slowly, no rush. People living there dressed in regional costumes that are colorful and beautiful. Highlanders people are kind and polite. We can see spectacular and beautiful mountain views when leaving the city. Zakopane is far from my hometown, but I went there whenever I could to climb the high peaks and enjoy the wonderful views.

Let's try to be have a positive attitude to always be cheeryful and kind to others.We should show our loved ones and speak to them how much we love them. But if we have bad time in our life and it something is wrong we don't give up just as long as possible we can fight to the very end.

If I had my life to over...

If I had my life to over, I would live somewhere away from the big city, where it is far away from the noisy strrets and somewhere in the vicinity of high mountains. I would have a small house with a garden near the forest where I could go for long walks. I would have animals in my home, especially dogs. I would have a garden with beautiful flowers. I know this is only a dream but sometimes it is good to have them because sometimes they can come true. It does not matter how old we are.
