There were muiscal performances and dance competitions held in the complex. He wanted his swimming pools to be open to all city residents, so he ensured low admission fees—25 cents to swim with a swimsuit and towel included! In addition, the pools had slides, swings, trampolines, trapezes, rings, and diving platforms. If I were as rich as Adolf Sutro, I would create Sutro Baths, too! Unfortunately, the complex burned down in 1966. Today its ruins remain next to the beach. It looks most beautiful during sunset hour. It is also beautiful and peaceful to visit the ruins at night during the full moon.
As you can probably tell, I enjoy history and the hidden gems of my city. Everyone always visits the Golden Gate Bridge, just like people always stop by the Brooklyn Bridge while visiting New York City. I'm sure New York City has hidden gems that many tourists do not know about! During my time in Seoul, South Korea, I hope to discover the city's hidden gems as well!
Aside from learning historical facts, I play flute and piano. My favorite classical music is music during the Romantic Era, which features composers such as Beethoven and Chopin. On the piano, I enjoy playing classical and boogie-woogie.
I used to do Muay Thai growing up. Muay Thai is a Thai martial art that involves kicking, punching, and attacks using the knees and elbows. The Master wanted me to fight in competitions as a kid around your age, but my parents only wanted me to participate in Muay Thai to learn self-defense. In college, I started taking judo classes. It is very different from Muay Thai because it does not involve punching or kicking. Instead, it uses throws and pins!
I did not get the chance to travel outside of the U.S. growing up.
