City, Suburb, Countryside August 9, 2013
Where is your favorite place to live: city, suburb, countryside? Here are a couple of thoughts from student writers:
Myriam: I live in a city and I like that!
I think that living in a city is more exciting and interesting because there are a lot of things to do like shopping, eating in a good restaurant, having fun with family and friends, and of course meeting interesting people who come from everywhere in the world. In addition I think in most cities there is a sense of community. Everybody knows their neighbors. You can help them; they can help you. It’s like a big family!
But there are also some disadvantages to living in a big city. Life is more expensive. The city is noisy. But it is not a problem if you love your city.
For my part, I love my city: Lyon [France].
I think it is a great place for a [vacation].
Yuki: I like to live in a city because in the city there is a lot of fun and cool places. I always [like] exciting things; that’s why I prefer to live [there].
In the city there are a lot of fun people. I love to talk with [people from other countries]. However, if I live in the country or suburbs, I can’t see [that many] interesting people. The city is always presenting new stuff, movies, clothes. I like that and I need it.
[On the other hand], sometimes I want to live in the country…in nature. Sometimes I want to get out of a crowded place. I need to relax. Maybe I should buy a vacation house in the country.
