Mis cosas favoritas sobre Breukelen


·      -Dance
·      -Spanish
·      -Traveling- ethnic foods
·      -Exploring new places
·      -Working
·      -Frugal shopping
·      -Small neighborhood shops
·      -Quaint bakerys
·      -$1.00 pizza
·      -The Promenade
·      -The brisk morning air brushing past my warm skin
·      -Walking on the street and feeling my internal organs instantly come alive
·      -The sun sets reflection on the water
·      -That feeling when my heart races for no apparent reason
·      -When I feel loved, appreciated and wanted.
·      -Listening to every conversation on the subway whether the person is speaking English, Spanish or Swahili just because I can and by the time I leave the subway car I feel as if I know them.
·      -Kids. Walking with parents to school. Their various observations on the subway. Smiling as the train leaves and takes them to a new place in this big ‘ol city.
·      -Smiling randomly to those on the sidewalk just to make their day better ( or because I just had a great day)
·      -Sitting. On the subway next to a stranger and reading the newspaper over their shoulder. On a park bench on the Promenade as folks walk their teacup poodles and Great Danes, alike.
·      -Dogs. Simply because they don’t recognize their differences since a dog is dog whether young or old, grande o pequeno... it’s all the same.

 These are a few of mis cosas favoritas sobre Brooklyn and my college experience thus far.
