Conveniently, I would say that in the past, when I was 5, I used to live in a smaller apartment. It was a narrow space with limited facilities. However, currently, I live in a fourth-floor house, which is more private. And there's a lot of difference around my house, which is really convenient since everything I need is easily available. However, there's a lack of sense of community compared to the past.
