Places I have lived

Many differences between living in Puerto Rico and living in Florida. They both have characteristics that make them unique, and particular. To start, I lived in P.R. for 18 years and there they don't care for women to have college education. As a result of cultural issues and values women is raise believing that there going to grow up get married and men is the omen who need to work and support his family woke women do the house work all the time. Perhaps, FL people is more likely to have and education before thinking about getting married and having children. Another important difference is safety. Puerto Rico as a result of government corruption a lot of people ignore rules and law enforcement which is not very safe for nobody,
The opposite, FL people respect and follow rules the best they can which make better safe place to live. When I go out sometimes on the weekend I have seen a lot of police officers in downtown area making sure everything is under control, and people is behaving the best way. My last point of comparison between them is nutrition. The diet that we are raise is not a variety of healthy food, compare with the variety of diet find in FL.There you have to eat big portions of starch and fried food which eventually will lead you to have all kind of health problems, besides we are not encourage to follow an exercise plan. Even do all my family lives there and I miss them I love the way of living here.
