The Influence of Riverside


 Nine months ago, I arrived to Riverside from my country. For the first time living outside my country, it was a little hard on me to adjust with the American live; however, after quite short time living here, I could use to Riverside live. I could say that Riverside is a very nice city for me for several reasons. First, it is a very quite city, and that is nice for study, and find a good environment to focus in what I am here for. Since I have lived in a big city whole of my life, it is a good opportunity to change my life style. For example, back home, I could not focus in my study since there are many things interrupt me such as; appointment with family, entertain with friends and other things. On the other hands, in Riverside, the environment is really appropriate for study and everyone is studying everywhere; in the school, in the library, in the coffee shop or even in the gym. Second, Riverside has a strategic location in California. It is almost in the middle to all the important cities and areas in California; moreover, the weather is very suitable during the whole year. I can spend a wonderful time during the weekend visiting Los Angeles or San Diego, for example. Even thought, San Francisco or Las Vegas far by only a couple hours only .Finally, I do not spend a lot of money here compared to what are my friends in other big cities in California, like  Los Angeles or San Francisco, spend.  For example, the housing is cheaper that other cities, and the transportation, and all the other services as well. In conclusion, Riverside is a nice, quiet, and safe city. The people here are so friendly. I am so lucky to live in this city and I would like to stay here the whole time during my study in America.

Welcom :)
