My Favorite Place in the World

The first thought that I had when asked what about my favorite place in the world is was could be Paris. [Better: When asked what my favorite place in the world was, I first thought of Paris.]

I think it was more than just a feeling. You see pictures of Paris your whole life, Paris and all their of the wonderful places there, and when you are there it is just simply amazing: The Eiffel tower, the Louvre, the Mona Lisa, Montremartre, the Sacre Coeur. all The whole city give envelops you with a romantic feeling. around you, but However, there are times when I think better my favorite place in the world is not a big city is but an small village -- a slum where I worked for a while, a place where nobody has running water and or paved roads, of concrete but they have dreams and a big smiles on their faces. When I go went there, trying I tried to help them in some way, by working with their children teaching about their rights. looking I looked at miracles every day, and as when they grew up, I grew up with them. doesn't It didn't matter if my shoes were full of dust when I finished, my job, my heart was full of hope!

Estoy de acuerdo contigo, Ingrid. Me gustaron las afueras de Tegucigalpa, Honduras, más que Paris. Sin embargo, vale la pena ver Paris, preferiblemente con un amante.
