Impression of Los Angeles Family Guy in the City

Mario Fernandez Restaurant Owner in South Central (Ex-gang member)

(Crenshaw Boulevard. 5pm. He in his mid-20s and is babysitting his two twin little boys Michael and Oscar who are both four years old and very fond of their daddy. He reveals to me that he used to live a dangerous life in the streets of L.A but decided to change his lifestyle)

Diverse! L.A. is like a big old melting pot that has got some of everybody from some of everywhere! I stayed in the east for a while with the cold but nothing beats the nice weather all year around.

I feel like this city is a busy ton of rich famous but still very hot beautiful and amazing. A lot of people don't realize how big LA is because it is very flat and lay out but yea it's huge.

I feel like LA has never a dull moment, I mean never. Ever since I left the streets, I became a family man. We Mexicans are all about family but anyway we love Universal Studios. Wife and the kids go there every year.

I really think LA doesn't have a certain character or personality because it's really not just one. Like I said...

What I don't like about LA is the stereo types that I have gotten as a Latino. I mean I know it doesn't help none that I was involves with gangs and all but it is like a scar that I cannot move. If you're Latino and you're from LA than people automatically think I am some gang member.
To relax, my favorite place to go is believe or not Hollywood. I know it sounds crazy but hey this city is known for the Hollywood walk of fame. It was always been my dream to just be in the movies one day, yea sounds a little crazy but everybody believe it or not comes to this town for that. But, yea, walking down that street and looking at those stars just gives me a relief. I take my wife sometimes as well but sometime, she doesn't want to go so I go on…
