Gathering information:
I have been to many different cities in different countries with my family over the years, but I had never
visited the city of Melbourne before. With a population of a little over eighty thousand, it is a small city
with lots of nature and not too much pollution. The people of this tiny city are very welcoming, open
minded and kind. The city usually dies down later during the day and becomes very quiet and quaint
with only a very few places open. It is home to Florida Institute of Technology, one of the most
distinguished schools of engineering and technology in the country. The university sits right in the center
of the city so that all necessary facilities are nearby making it very convenient for the people who live in
or close to the campus. Being in the coastal region, it tends to rain quite a lot and also the occasional
heavy winds and even hurricanes during its season. In my personal opinion, Id rather it be really hot and
dry than the climate we experience here in Melbourne although I really seem to enjoy the peace and
calm that seems to be spread everywhere. I say this since I come from a place that really is hot and dry
and seem to be very used to that sort of a climate. It really is a quaint little city and also is considerably
safe compared to other cities in this country. I have enjoyed my stay here in Melbourne and am looking
forward to many more days in this quiet little place.
