we stay at the university doing work, when I get home I rest for a
while and I listen to music, on weekends I take English classes,

day I usually watch comedy movies.

bad thing is that I get nervous easily, I'm one fifty-four and I am
somewhat stubborn.

• Home Casa

My house is one story, it has a big yard with many plants, trees
and all kinds of flowers, the house is white with red, the gate is
black and there are two cars parked.

To get to my house from the terminal you can choose to go by

taxi, charge two dollars and fifty in the direction of the Azaya taxi
rank or Isla Santa Cruz and Ambato streets in front of the bus
stop at a black gate.

the streets of simon bolivar, we have two and a half hours to make
those purchases, because then it becomes very late at night.

• Travel and holiday Viajes y vacaciones

I like to travel to visit my family that is in Quito, it is fun to go because I

see my cousins and we talk about everything a little, to go we usually
go by car for me the trip is cool because the time flies by, it is also
more comfortable than traveling in other ways, on vacation we visit my
other cousins who live in Salinas, we have a good time but it is very hot
and it is unbearable, but at least they live near the sea and we like it at
all.

• Transport carro, tren, bus, bote

 I like to travel by car because it is more comfortable, once I travel
by plane it is comfortable but my feet get cramped and, above all,
my ears get clogged and it is somewhat annoying.

Traveling by train is fun but I was a little scared because it was very
noisy and when it arrived at the stop it seemed like it would go off
the tracks.

Traveling by bus, in my opinion, can maybe be uncomfortable at

bedtime, because the seats are very narrow, but to get to know the
way it seems fine to me, I tend to be a heavy sleeper so the night
flies by.

In my opinion traveling by boat seems nice, I haven't traveled but

they tell me that it is relaxing to see the sea and the sunsets, maybe
you get a little dizzy but then I think you get used to it and to sleep
the waves of the sea move you like a cradle

ANECDOTA

When I left home, the sun was shining, so I opted not to take a coat and wore
sneakers, thinking it wouldn't rain. During class, the engineer glanced out the window and saw
it start pouring. The power went out, prompting an early dismissal. Outside, we waited for the
rain to ease, laughing with my classmates. When it seemed to let up, we caught the bus, but
unfortunately, it rained again. Getting off, I ran to avoid getting wet, but hit a big puddle,
splashed by a passing car. I arrived home soaked, my family laughing at me. Later, I felt unwell
and caught a cold.
