I live in a two storey detached house. It contains 4 bedrooms, a store room, a large hall attached with dinning room and a kitchen. It is surrounded by a lovely garden. My house is quite convenient and cosy to stay but during summer season, rooms become very warm which I consider as a drawback. I live with my immediate family. Our house is located in a residential area within city. There are so many things to do like swimming, sight seeing, jungle safari near our community.

You are a great teacher. I am learning a lot with you. I'm 65 years old and I'm learning English by myself. To speak English is my dream . I'd like to watch movie in English and to go travel abroad after pandemic. My mother's language is portuguese therefore is difficult to practice speaking. Thanks.

I live with my husband and daughter in a spacious, well-ventilated 2bhk apartment on 7th floor of a high-rise building, located in the west of the city-center. This flat is full of wide windows that make it more airy and full of natural light! I also love my cosy bedroom, where I spend most of my time after work.the area has lots of grocery shops, restaurants, gardens and school near by, because of which I shifted here 5 months back.there is nothing in here which I would ever like to change! The house is so perfect for me making my nights peaceful and days productive.

It's cosy but cramped and drafty in winter. I live with my familly near the city center in a nice quiet neighbourhood. There are coffes, restaurant, shops, gym, two party clubs and a park where we go on picnic during spring.

I live with my husband and my daughters on the ground floor of a six-storey flat in the city centre. My flat has two bedrooms, a large living room with a dining table in the middle, on which we eat and study together.Although I live on the ground floor, it’s not very dark most of the times since there are many windows a glass door opens to a small courtyard, where a tall tree nest to it that makes the temperature much cooler, especially during hot summer evenings.We like to sit outside and drink tea together as a family when the weather is agreeable.Outside the courtyard, there is also a small communal garden, sometimes when I play piano by the window I like to look at the scenery outside the window, opening the windows and the glass door to let in the fresh air. I love my flat, it’s very quiet and cosy.Although it’s a little cramped for a family of four.The doorman at reception is always very thoughtful and considerate, they makes us feel safe.
The area in which ma flat is located is a relatively quiet area of the Capital although there are many offers around, it can get crowded whenever people come to work and depart for home. There is a bus stop nearby which is very convenient for travel also, the underground station is only 10-15 minutes away by walking. I typically enjoy the calmness of the area at the end of a busy days.In the neighbourhood, grocery shopping is also very easy since there are two supermarkets scattered around.There is park near my home, there are many people exercising every morning around here and children who enjoys the playground, also, the area seem to be popular with dog owners because I see many of them walking their pets every morning.

Whoever serious enough to brush up theirs can still learn a lot more from this source and teacher, given the quality of the contents and presentation.

I live in a three-storey semi-detached house. It has two large bedrooms with a separate bathroom, a living room with a big window, a modern kitchen with a dining table, and a small balcony. It's light, spacious and airy but it gets drafty in the winters. I live with my parents and brother in Narela . Our house is near the railway station, in a lively neighbourhood and it is convenient for going anywhere by train but it is noisy as the railway is at the back of the house. There isn't much too do because there aren't many restaurants, clothing shops or malls only some small shops, cafe and restaurant

I live in an apartment on the third floor of a four storey building. It has two small bedrooms, a medium sized living room a kitchen and a small balcony where we go to relax. It is cosy but dark and cramped when visitors come. I live in the middle of the city with my parents. It is quite noisy but there is nothing fun to do other than going to the mall.
Thank you for helping me improve my descriptive writing!

I fail to find a word good enough to describe how amazing this channel is, idk why but ever since i started learning english i realized how amazing it is to know how to express yourself clearly and in a concise way. this even motivates me to learn new things in my native language

[tuyencao]

I live in a small home with my family. My house has two bed rooms, a kitchen with a dining table and a cupboard which is my grandmother's gift to my parents at their wedding, a living room with two-window and a rock chair where I can consume coffee and read books. Our home is in the coffee plantation, it's cosy and in a quiet neighbourhood. There are some small shops, no pubs, no restaurants. it's not convenient for my work because I have been working in HCM city that is significant distance, around 350km from my hometown. I couldn't find a good job near there but I still really love my home.
