Do you live in a house or an apartment?
-
I’m currently living in a cozy house with 3 bedrooms, a living room and a tiny kitchen area. It’s simple , functional and affordable. Given the rapidly increasing house prices in Hanoi, I couldn't ask for more. (*cozy: nhỏ xinh/ functional: hoạt động tốt / affordable: giá vừa tầm / Given… : cân nhắc, xét đến …/ ask for : đòi hỏi)
Which part of your house do you like best?
-
I love the rooftop terrace because it's the only outdoor space in our house. I put several pots of ornamental trees and flowers there to create a bit of green space where we can have a coffee in the morning. (*rooftop terrace: sân thượng / ornamental trees: cây cảnh)
Do you think your house is a pleasant place to live in?
-
Yes. I'd say so. The house is small so I don't need to spend a lot of time cleaning it. We splurged on high-quality multi-purpose furniture such as wall beds and transforming tables so each room is well-furnished and still looks spacious. Besides, the house is located right in the commercial center of Hanoi so it's very convenient for us to commute. (* splurged on: chi nhiều tiền cho / multipurpose: đa chức năng / transforming tables: bàn biến hình / well-furnished: bài trí đẹp / spacious: rộng rãi / commute: đi lại)
Does your house have a good view?
-
I suppose so. The second and third floors of my house have decent views over my neighbor’s balconies where they grow a lot of exotic plants and flowers. But the one with the best view is the top floor. Its view isn't blocked by the opposite house and there isn’t any high-rise in the vicinity so from this floor, I can enjoy a panoramic view over the surroundings. (*exotic: độc lạ / high-rise: nhà cao tầng / the vicinity: vùng lân cận / panoramic: toàn cảnh )
What would you like to change about your house?
-
I'd love to have a garden. In my childhood, I used to live in a cottage with a large garden where we grew our own food and played games such as hide and seek. But I know it costs a lot to build a rooftop garden in a city house so I’m thinking of moving back to my hometown when I retire to pursue my gardening passion. (* be thinking of V-ing: dự tính sẽ làm gì đó)
What kind of house would you like to live in?
-
I’ve always dreamt of owning a detached house in a tranquil area like a suburb or ideally the countryside. It doesn’t have to be a mansion or a villa but a large garden is definitely a must as I'd like to stay close to nature. (* doesn’t have to be: không nhất thiết phải…/ mansion: nhà rất lớn / villa: biệt thự )
