Vienna

The third city that I choose is Vienna. It’s also in Europe, capital of Austria, and it’s seems to be a perfect city. The city has an exemplary environment possessing many park facilities and a very developed system of commun transport. It has an extensive tram and bus network ( the tram network being third largest in the world ). That’s why in the most populated areas of Vienna, public transport runs really frequently. In term of education, we can’t criticize, it is the center of education and home to many universities of the country. Vienna is also a city of arts, culture, and sports (hosts many different sporting events including the Vienna City Marathon). I know that there is no sea, and in the winter the temperatures goes very down, but with all that system of transportation and the international airport not to far, it is possible to go somewhere else like Sydney or Brazil.
These were my three favorites cities in this sorting of Top Cities

Geneva

The second city that I would choose is located in southwest of Switzerland, between the Alps and the Jura mountains. Besides the fact that it’s near from France, in Geneva they speak French, so it will be easy for me to get use with this place. Geneva is one of the greenest cities in Europe with more than 20 parks in the city center offering countless opportunities for rest and relaxation. In this city we can enjoy over 1,000 restaurants! The city is the undisputed capital of cuisine in Switzerland with the specialities: fondue, raclette, lake fish dishes, smoked sausage and a variety of casseroles. The transport is very developed; we can use the TGV, the airport, and the public transport like the bus, the trolleybus or the tram. They are serious when they put Geneva between the top cities of the world.

Sydney

Among the 15 top cities, Sydney is one of my favorites.First of all, it’s in Australia, and the climate never goes below 8 Cº. In addition to this the ocean binds the city. That’s why it seems to be pleasant to live. Sydney has public, denominational and independent schools and it’s home to some of Australia’s most prominent universities. The education can be good and freeas well as the hospitals there. The city also provides a network of Recreation and Learning Centers that host activities ranging from sports to youth programs and there are dozens of beautiful parks and open spaces to choose. For the environment, many efforts are being done like seeks to achieve energy savings in buildings and transportation, encourage renewable energy usage, constructions of greenhouses and reduce air pollution within the city.That explain why if I had to choose to live in one of the top cities, Sydney would be one of my choices.

This photo shows a really beautiful and wild beach. I really like the “black” tree contrasting with the rocks and the sea. So we don’t see the left part of the photo, and this creates a mysterious effect . It’s just like a painting that we make and cover with black to unveil the scene again.
