WHY HAVE I CHOSEN NEW YORK?
I have chosen New York, because it’s a city that I’ve been in and I would love to go
back there. When I was there with my uncles, the day of return, they happened a
very curious thing to us that is that to go there, we landed in one airport and to
return we had to go to another airport and we went to the same one we landed
on, and of course we lost the plane.

In this city you can visit many fantastic cities or monuments.
