Personal Narrative: My Trip To Miami

Satisfactory Essays
Open Document

During the spring of 2017, I went to Miami and stayed with a friend I met in the first couple weeks of school. Her family are Cuban immigrants. I stayed at her house with her family, who live in Tamiami, a Cuban neighborhood on the outskirts of Miami, where most people spoke little to no English. I was immediately immersed into the Cuban culture the moment I arrived. I had the opportunity to first-hand experience the language, food, music, and lifestyle while I was there. A surprising thing for me while I was in Miami, was that we went to some restaurants where I had to order in Spanish because all the people that worked there spoke only Spanish. Also, we went to Calle Ocho, which is a festival in Little Havana, that celebrates Cuban culture.
