Paragraph 1: Short family introduction, family routines and what the weather
was like the last month.

We are a small family from Cali and we decided to live in Baltimore because we
wanted to have a better lifestyle. Today, we are going to write about our experience
living in this city during the last month in terms of our new routines, the weather,
places visited, activities done and our feelings. We arrived to this beautiful city last
month and what we liked the most was the weather because it was summer and it
was very hot. Our routine has changed a lot: From Monday to Friday, we woke up at
8am, we had breakfast together and we started our day. My mother stayed at home
doing the chores, and my father and I got out to do many things like to find the best
school for me. At 12 o’clock, we arrived home and had lunch together. In the
afternoon, my parents took a nap or watched a TV show on Netflix, and I walked
around the neighborhood to make new friends and to get familiar with the place. My
mom worked from 3 to 8pm in a bank as an accountant. My father did not work
because he decided to stay with me. We always had dinner together and we went
to sleep at around 10pm. During the weekends, we visited some touristic places, we
ate ice cream and we shared time in family.

Paragraph 2: Experiences about visited places and activities done the last
month.

Last month, we did many activities and visited many places. My father and I visited
some schools and we chose the Abbottston Elementary School. I love reading, so
we visited the “Enoch Pratt free” library and I registered to take books home. My
father loves cars, so we went to Baltimore Streetcar museum. In that place, we learnt
a lot about cars! I really liked it! We also took some cooking class in the Community
Center because we love cooking. In addition, we visited the best amusement park
called Adventure Park. There, we rode roller-coasters one hundred times, we ate ice
cream and I tasted the best burgers in that park. We had a great time during the last
month.

Paragraph 3: Family feelings about the new city, things you liked the most
during the last month and a short conclusion.

My mom was sad because she missed my grandparents too much. My father felt
happy because he said that it was the best decision. I felt excited because I met
many people and the new places we visited. In conclusion, Baltimore is an amazing
city to live because you can do many things and learn a lot about culture.
