Believing That You Can
It has the most exciting, amazing, bluest, relaxing beaches.
As soon as you step out of car you can already feel the
breeze on your face. The water has amazing waves that
make you want to come and join the fun. The food there is
amazing; I mean where do I start? From fried plantains, to
fried chicken, and fried vegetables, even the sweets are
amazing. In Haiti the fruits are very fresh.
When I am in Haiti I can go in the trees and pick out the
fruits that I want to eat. The vegetables are organic and
fresh. I grow fruits and vegetables. I have a lot of mango
trees; I have guava, papaya, limes and many more. The
history of this place is written everywhere and it is
beautiful. La Citadel is a fort that was built by Henry
Christophe when Haiti was fighting. It has bullets, guns,
cannons, and cannon balls. It is very amazing. Another
thing that would make this my favorite place is the
temperature in the day and night. It is cool and breezy
which is perfect for me to sleep. I love having fun, relaxing,
and also spending a lot of time with my children and my
husband. Finally, another thing that I like about my country
is that most of my family is there. My sister, my nephews
and nieces, my aunt, and my uncles, and many more still
live there. When I go to Haiti, I enjoy going and visiting
them. In conclusion, Haiti is a small country in the
Caribbean. I always hear people say that it is a poor
country. In reality it may be poor economically, but it has a
lot of riches. It has beautiful beaches and good and healthy
food. The people in Haiti are very talented. They use what
they have around them in nature to make very beautiful
accessories. I love my country and it is my favorite place in
the world. I will always come back to my country.

My Favorite Place
My favorite place would have to be my bedroom. My
bedroom is the hot spot where I like to go to escape reality,
where I can be myself and do all of my thinking. Whatever
problems or issues I have going on in my life, my room is
the place where I meditate and soothe those issues out. One
