× To be honest, to be honest, to be honest, it really depends on which parks to go.
✓ To be honest, it really depends on which parks I went to.
The original sentence repeats the phrase 'to be honest' unnecessarily and uses 'to go' which is an incorrect infinitive structure here. Use simple past 'I went to' to match the context of childhood. Also remove repeated filler words for natural speech.'
× If it were natural parks, I didn't really like that.
✓ If they were natural parks, I didn't really like them.
Use plural pronoun 'they' and object pronoun 'them' to refer to 'parks' and maintain past tense. 'If it were' is awkward for plural; use 'If they were' to agree with plural subject.
× But talking about amusement parks, I was more than happy going there when I was a child.
✓ But when it came to amusement parks, I was more than happy to go there when I was a child.
'Happy going' is less natural; use 'happy to go' or 'happy about going'. Also add 'when it came to' to clarify contrast.
× Nowadays. Nowadays, yes, I'm very happy going to the parks because I live in a huge city, Saint Petersburg.
✓ Nowadays, yes, I'm very happy to go to parks because I live in a big city, Saint Petersburg.
Single-word sentence 'Nowadays.' is a fragment; combine into one sentence. Use 'to go to parks' rather than 'going to the parks' for general preference. 'Huge' is acceptable but 'big' is more natural here.
× It has plenty of bags of different kinds, so I wouldn't mind going there for a walk with my friends.
✓ It has plenty of parks of different kinds, so I wouldn't mind going there for a walk with my friends.
'bags' is a clear error for 'parks'. Replace with 'parks' to convey meaning.
× Absolutely. Uh, but not exactly in my city, Saint Petersburg, uh, but there are a lot of small places near the city which have a plenty of bugs.
✓ Absolutely, but not exactly in my city, Saint Petersburg; there are a lot of small places near the city which have plenty of parks.
Remove filler 'uh' and fix 'a plenty of bugs' which is incorrect. Likely intended 'plenty of parks'. Also use semicolon or comma to connect clauses properly.
× For example, in Petergulf, there are parks like Alexandria, which I would like to visit and, uh, see museums there.
✓ For example, in Peterhof there are parks like Alexandria which I would like to visit and see museums in.
Place name corrected to 'Peterhof' (common near St Petersburg) if that was intended; avoid ending with 'there' and use 'visit and see museums in' or 'visit and go to museums'. Also remove filler 'uh'.
× Yes, especially talking about amusement parks. I would like to visit Disney park.
✓ Yes, especially when talking about amusement parks. I would like to visit a Disney park.
Use 'when talking about' for clarity and add indefinite article 'a' before 'Disney park' because a particular park is not specified.
× There are a lot of uh, places, cities where I can visit this Disney park.
✓ There are a lot of places and cities where I could visit a Disney park.
Remove filler 'uh' and restructure: 'places and cities' is more natural. Use conditional 'could' or 'can' consistently; 'this Disney park' implies a specific park which wasn't introduced, so use 'a Disney park'.
× Or maybe talking about Russia. Uh, I would like to go to Sochi park, take some rides and have fun with my friends there.
✓ Or maybe, speaking about Russia, I would like to go to Sochi Park, take some rides, and have fun with my friends there.
'Talking about Russia' is okay but 'speaking about Russia' is more formal. Capitalize 'Sochi Park' as a proper name and include commas for list clarity.
