Topic 1 : Padilla's introduction

Hello, my name is David, I am starting  this blog because, I am taking  "Advanced reading and writing ESL  class"  and I believe this is a good way of practice. Let me introduce myself, I was born in El Salvador, many years ago, specifically  in the city of Santa Ana (CA  has a city with the same name , however my city is older, and I could say we are the original one hahaha). I am going to share information about my country and city, El Salvador is a tiny piece of land it is about 21,041 km²,or 8,124 square miles, our population is about 7,000,000.  These pictures are our emblematic places, "Teatro Nacional de Santa Ana" on your right.

On your left you see " Volcan Ilamatepeq" and next to the volcano " Lago de Coatepeque" , this is a volcanoes complex and its part of  "Ring of Fire", this complex consists on four volcanoes, "Lago de Coatepeque", "Volcan Ilamatepeq", "Cerro Verde", "Volcan de Izalco". As an interesting fact " Lago de Coatepeque" used to be an active volcano thousands of years ago, after its powerful eruption, this volcano becomes a lake. Nowadays, two of them are active, "Ilamatepeq" and " Izalco", the last eruption recorded of " Ilamatepeq" was in 2005. This  was a little introduction of my city, talking about me I have been living in CA for one year, I have been studying English since last summer. In my spare time  I like to be active, play soccer, hiking, running, gym or any physical activity is welcome. Moreover, I enjoy the environment and nature. for that reason I have been working with  a non-profit organization in my country called "Un Pulmon Mas", one of its goals is keep safe the environment. One thing that people don't know about me is, I studied medicine  for four years in my country, and my main goal in this country is to finish my career.
