I think your essay is wonderful! You said your opinion in your first paragraph, then stated why in the next ones. Also the big if is pretty cool. Keep on writing essays and lapses will be corrected. Try to proofread and check the spelling so that it will be better.

Letters are typed in the office by mary
Explanation:
Quite similarly, ever since I was a young kid I used to dream about going to London, it was my life goal you could say.
It seemed quite impossible as I come from a working class family however I decided to work during college in order to save every pennie and book a flight to the UK.
I was finally able to do it, I was one flight away from seeing London for the first time ever, I could not have been more excited.
Once I got there, for the first time in my life I knew how dissapointment felt like. It was nothing like I imagined, it was exactly how no one ever described it to me: crowded, dirty and ordinary.
I learned to love its streets and its people but frankly I'd only return if it was for free.
Hope this helps :)
The correct answer is the first one: compensate.
