My community

My neighborhood is normal but I don’t like it. There are a lot of bad boys at night in front of my house. They like to smoke and use drugs. Sometimes my neighbors make parties. They make a lot of noise. I lived in Desamparados for 11 years. I live with my family. All the houses are different. There are some trees and a park in front of my house. In the corner there is a mini-market. Two blocks before the mini-market there is a bank. If you walk you can find a lot of places. Something positive is that we recycle and my neighbors too.

My ideal Job

My ideal job has to be related with my studies. I want to be a manager and owner of a company one day. It is the perfect job for me. You can be a leader and recruit people for business success. I would have a night club on the beach. Two years ago I was working in Puntarenas. There I worked with tuna export. Workers on the coast are very nice and humble. My night club would be fun and different. I hope to succeed and help others.
