describe the place where you grew up
I grew up in Casarabonela , a village of Malaga. It is located in a plateau in the big group of mountains. All houses are white and it is beautiful. The village is bordered by forest, mountains and cliffs. Also it has a big (better: large) variety of wildlife.
My grandparents have a house in the countryside not very far away from village. The house is very beautiful , it is bordered by fertile farmland and grassland. The house is located near a river. The river is narrow and shallow. It arises on a hill of the mountain and flows along for five kilometers. If you follow the river you can see small waterfalls.
Living in a countryside has advantages and disadvantages
Let´s start with the advantages. The climate of a countryside is more temperate than in the city. In the city you can have extreme temperatures.
In summer at night, in the village, the temperature is low, and you can sleep without air conditioning. However in winter the climate in the village is cooler than in the city.
Other advantage is that living in a village is more peaceful and quieter than living in a city. And of course, the air is cleaner.
On the other hand, the village does not have enough shops for buying everything you need., and the price of the food is more expensive than in the city. If you want to see a film, at the cinema, you have to drive about 45 minutes.
In conclusion, although the shops and the cinema are away from the village. I prefer living in a village than in a city.
Now I am living in a flat on the middle of the city. I wish I had money for buying a house in the village and I would move there.
