    "It’s different ethnicities and there’s good places to visit in dc if you’re just visiting. Great things as far as museums, sight-seeing, & shopping. Not too far from Union Station where you can commute to other areas using the yellow and green lines. Also use the trolley which is free fare. So you can explore the restaurants on H Street and the Pubs."
