What’s the name of your hometown (again)?

Do you like your hometown?
I really loved growing up in Beijing, because it gives me a lot of important life-lessons. For example, growing up in such a busy city taught me how to be responsible at a very young age, like never littering about and always watching out for the cars. You have to be really careful in Beijing.

Please describe your hometown a little.
Well, Beijing is a really, really big place, and so it’s hard to describe the city without mentioning how busy and crowded it can sometimes get. During the summer, it’s almost impossible to actually get around in the city, because millions of tourists come to visit.
北京是一个非常非常大的地方,如果不提及它的拥挤和繁忙的话,是很难形容好这座城市的。在夏天,因为有上百万的游客来访,有时候甚至几乎不太可能通行。
Do you think you will continue living there for a long time?
Well, now that I’m a student I don’t actually live in Beijing anymore. Even during the summers, this article is from Laokaoya website, I only go back to visit for a few weeks. My parents really wanted me to become independent, so that’s why I decided to move out.
现在我是一个学生,我目前不在北京居住。即便在夏天,我只是回去几周。我的父母很想让我变得独立,所以那就是为什么我要搬出去的原因。
Do you still live in your hometown?

Where do you want to live in the future?
That’s a good question, and I’m really not sure that I know right now. I guess that one day it would be nice to live in Canada, or in the United States… I’ve also considered moving to Europe one day. It really depends on where my family and my career take me!
