My first time in Chicago

Hello everyone, 

My name is Jairo Montes, I am from Peru. I was born in Junin a state in my country, but all my life was in Lima the capital. I live in the district of Surco.

Well, I am studying  civil engineering in " Universidad Peruana de ciencias Aplicadas" College , I am in the sixth cycle of my career and my major is the roads.

I live with my parents, my father is an administrator an my mother a housewife, i don't have any brothers or sisters.

I my free time i love to play the guitar, i like to do covers of different rock groups.

I came to Chicago to learn and practice my English, also i will know the city.
I would like to  speak more fast and do tourism for all the city know the main streets, see the architecture of the buildings and other things more.

The Picasso is a beautiful and representative sculpture.

My first day in Chicago, I felt at home, because the people are respectful and the city is pretty ordered. The weather was pretty cold,  I had never been in a place like, but now I am getting used.
 The cultural center is  interesting because there are many pictures and  things of that time.

I don't have some piece favorite, I liked all the pieces. 
My friends and me went to a different places as the river of Chicago, many malls,  market and met the downtown.

Well, Chicago is a beautiful city the builds are old but pretty interesting because has a very good architecture. My classes are incredible because you practice the English everyday and the teachers are very funny.


The Harold Washington Library

The place is pretty beautiful..... the build has a good architecture, i like the old buildings.

It has cozy rooms where you can read or chat with your friend  as.....

Well, I was surprised to chicago  the habits of the people because they are pretty respectful and educated.

Also the order and ease  getting around the city using trains, buses and meters.

Chicago History Museum

it is a beautiful place.  you can  find photographs, things and classic clothes in different rooms.

I liked the architecture  of the old  buildings. 

For example Chrysler motors,  it has  a surprising architecture to these years.

This building was built especially to the motor show in 1933 
Its pavilion and grounds covered over seven acres of land on the Fair site. It included not only the Chrysler building, but sunken gardens, the Cyclorama, display areas and a race track. the track was 18 meters wide and 100 meters long.

I like it.
