My home town

My home town
]My home town

I live in a flat with my parents and my sister. My flat has 4 rooms. There is a kitchen with a balcony, and a small bathroom is separated from the toilet. There is a living room too, where my dad sleeps. On this side of the flat, there are also a balcony and two bedrooms. In one of these bedrooms sleeps my mother and the other is divided between my sister and me. In the living room and in mother's bedroom there is a TV but there isn't any in my bedroom. Instead, we have a computer on which my sister spends all her time. In my case, I prefer reading books or drawing but I also like to discuss with my friends on the Internet.

My building isn't very big. There are seven floors. (about 82.02 feet) It's old but very clean, large and it has some garages but not everybody rents one. Upstairs there is an attic, where we can put some things.

In front of my building (side living room), there is a park with benches and trees. Often, people read or play with their dogs on this place. Behind my building, (side kitchen) there is a school for children from 4 to 10 years. In the yard of the school, we can do a lot of activities: there is a couple of swings, we can play football and basketball too.

In the entrance of our building there is code that allows us to come in, all the tenants know it. The persons that haven't the code cannot pass the entrance door. This system reduces the possibilities of theft.

Not very far from our neighbourhood, at 1minute, there are two shopping centres and some stores but the town centre is at about five to ten minutes by tram. Fortunately the trams pass next to my flat. Anyway, there are trams everywhere in Geneva. It's very practice because at rush hours there are a lot of traffic jams.
