This is the map of California, as you can see it's located next to the Pacific Ocean. It's well known for Hollywood, but there's better things in California than Hollywood and film stars! The weather, the clothes, the people are other good things about California.

This is my bedroom in San Jose, California.  
 

I live in San Jose, California. I've been living there for 2 years, and it's wonderful there, the weather and the open space! The best part about where I live is that I can do lots of things, for example if I wanted to go skiing, I can drive to Lake Tahoe which is about 3 hours away from San Jose, or if i wanted to go to the beach I can drive to Santa Cruz, which is about an hour away. It means I can have the best of cold and hot weathers. In England you can't do that! Also it's one of the best place to live in the world!

I've been to many places in and out of California such as; Los Angeles, San Francisco, Reno, Lake Tahoe, San Diego, Las Vegas and many other places.
