× I really enjoyed going to some park with my family and my brothers.
✓ I really enjoyed going to the park with my family and my brothers.
Use of 'some park' is unnatural here; article is needed. Also after 'enjoyed' the -ing form 'going' is correct. Suggestion: use 'the park' to refer to parks in general when speaking about habitual childhood visits.
× It was some incredible recall that I have about my my child and I love it.
✓ It is an incredible memory from my childhood, and I love it.
Original sentence has several problems: 'some incredible recall' is unidiomatic, 'I have about my my child' is incorrect word choice and duplicated 'my'. Use 'memory from my childhood' and present simple 'is' to describe a lasting memory. Also join clauses with 'and'.
× I use going to pass always as I can, but in this moment is maybe difficult because I'm living in a island where there isn't too much parks.
✓ I try to go as often as I can, but at the moment it is difficult because I'm living on an island where there aren't many parks.
Multiple issues: 'use going to pass always' is ungrammatical; use 'try to go as often as I can' to express habit. 'in this moment' should be 'at the moment'. 'a island' requires 'an island'. 'there isn't too much parks' has subject-verb and quantifier errors: 'parks' plural needs 'there aren't' and 'many' not 'much' for countable nouns.
× But of course I love going to parks and always when I, when I am in my country, in Argentina, Cordova, I just go into parks with friends.
✓ But of course I love going to parks, and whenever I am in my country, Argentina (Córdoba), I just go to parks with friends.
Use 'whenever' instead of 'always when I'. Use 'in my country, Argentina, Córdoba' with commas; 'into parks' is incorrect—use 'to parks'. Also place commas for clarity.
× And I think, uh, parks made me feel relaxed and around, uh, trees and, uh, natural nature.
✓ And I think parks make me feel relaxed and surrounded by trees and nature.
Tense and word choice: 'parks made me feel' shifts to past; present simple 'make' fits the general statement. 'around trees' is awkward; use 'surrounded by trees'. 'natural nature' is redundant—use 'nature'.
× I have a friend living there and she always tell me how amazing is and the incredible places it has.
✓ I have a friend living there, and she always tells me how amazing it is and about the incredible places it has.
Subject-verb agreement: 'she always tell' should be 'she always tells'. Clause order: 'how amazing is' should be 'how amazing it is'. Add 'about' before 'the incredible places' for clarity.
× So I would like to know and to have with my friend in that incredible places.
✓ So I would like to visit those incredible places with my friend.
Original is ungrammatical: 'to know and to have with my friend in that incredible places' is unclear. Use 'visit those incredible places with my friend' to express intent. Use 'those' for plural 'places' and correct word order.
