Esmira - I see you love to swim! [censored] do you live in USA?

Hi Olga, yes I love swimming very much so! I live in New Jersey. I know people make fun of this State but I love it. It is relatively quiet and green, just the way I like it. Also, here we enjoy all the 4 season and even though driving conditions can be difficult when it is snowing and I strongly dislike it but still it is OK. Of course, it depends on the town as well. My town is very conveniently located and it is only 15 minutes away from the New York. It has side walks all over it so I drive only when I have to, other than that I walk. It does not matter to me that majority of people do not walk here. I still do my thing and very happy for that opportunity. I walk to the pool, post office, library, supermarket, etc. All of these conveniently located around the town. How lovely! Well, I live in my town for 5 years. We used to live in Brooklyn, very crowded place so we run from there.

As to ocean, I am not big fan of it for some reason. I enjoy lakes mostly but Lake Placid is far away and those are the lakes I really enjoyed about 10 years ago. The water is crystal clear. Such a pleasure to swim there! Unfortunately, our lakes in NJ not as clean so after going there for so many years I have decided to join the town pool and enjoy it very much so. It is nice to swim almost every day. This way I enjoy it and exercise at the same time without even working too hard.

I hope you enjoy your town and what it has to offer as well.
