Informal transcript for a video
Hi, friend. How's it going? You asked me if I had any pictures of my city or street to show you. Sorry, I don't have any pictures. I prefer videos than pictures. This is why I am recording this quick video to show you a little of my surroundings. I am now at a place nearby my house, where I like to go jogging once or twice a week. I like to come at this place because here the streets are long, wide, and paved which are great for walk and jog. Other reason for that is there are not much vehicles going around.
Bye the way, the audio is not the real audio of the video because I was feeling like a weirdo shooting the video and talking with the camera on the street - I am a bit shy. Also because if you talk while you're running you lose your breath, right? This video will be like a narrative.
Anyway. I'll talk a bit about my city. My city has around 200.000 inhabitants. It's not such a big place - it bores me to death sometimes - and it is very, very hot most part of the year. We're in the last days of summer and today's temperature was like 30-31 degrees Celsius.
I live 15 minutes car-drive from downtown. What I like about my neighborhood is, as I said, it's away from downtown, therefore we don't have traffic noises. I definitely enjoy it. It's situated on the edge of the city so along the one side of it and beyond there are small forested hills and green fields, which makes the air fresher and the landscape pretty. We're used to wake up hearing birds singing as well as roosters crowing. One or two neighbors on the quarter bring up fowls so we normally hear them at daybreak. On weekdays as I have to get up early is very pleasant to hear them, but on weekends I feel like I want them for lunch.

Great writing, and interesting to read. Small points:
I prefer oranges to apples. I prefer videos to pictures. I prefer oranges more than apples. I prefer videos more than pictures. You can choose either sentence.
Many = countable items. Many vehicles, many people. Much = uncountable things. Much water, much kindness
I live 15 minutes by car from downtown. When you wrote car-drive, that becomes a noun and therefore requires 'a'.
Great for reading. Great for jogging. Great to read. Great to jog.
