When I was a child, I used to live in a small city next to their capital. There’s no fancy facilities. Its constructions were pretty simple and modest. What about my neighborhood? My home was surrounded by a couple of houses that look almost identical to my own. That perhaps was because that all of them were built around the same time. There were a few shops nearby. My neighborhoods were very friendly and kind people. We often visited each other’s houses and had small celebrations. I especially like playing with neighborhood kids as they were so funny and somehow they managed to come up with some exciting idea about the next game. I wouldn’t say I want to live there in the future, but currently I’m definitely planning to visit that place again soon.
