My name is Juan and I live in a big and

contemporary city in the centre of Colombia.
The city is called Santa Fé de Bogotá and is
located in the department of Cundinamarca.
Besides, it is the capital city of Colombia which
means that is the largest and most crowded
city of my country. The city is surrounded
by high mountains, rivers and amazing
landscapes.
The weather is frequently cold. It
includes rainy, windy and cloudy days.
My house is in the north of the city, in a
pleasant neighborhood in front of a small park.
The city centre is the most expensive and noisiest place here. It is also the most
dangerous one after midnight. People are always running and rushing for their jobs, school
and other duties. Traffic and public transportation is awful too. TransMilenio is the main
public transport, but most of the time it is unsafe, crowded or really slow. For that reason, I
prefer to take a taxi or drive my car.
However, I love my city a lot because there are many places to visit, and activities to
do that you do not know where to start. I consider that it is the best place to live and I
would never move from here!
