My favorite parts about Puerto Rico is the scenery, i would love to go there for vaction because it is really beautiful and the waters are blue and clear. I also would love to go to Puerto Rico because of its food. Compared to the United States, it really reminds me of Florida because of its green plant life and clear, warm waters. Puerto rico is definently on my bucket list to visit!
