OE-1-3-7 My home town

Jeff, Great Britain

I'm from New Romney, in the south of England. It's near the sea, so there's a nice beach, and the countryside near here is lovely, but there isn't a lot to do. There aren't any cinemas or art galleries or museums. It's a small town. One good thing is it's cheap! I work at home and I do jobs for different companies and magazines. I don't get a lot of money because I don't have a lot of work, but I enjoy it. It's interesting.

Nancy, the USA

I'm from Pinedale, in the middle of California. I work in a school and I walk to work every day. That's nice. I love my job and I love my students, but I don't like the area. It's not very nice. Crime is a problem here. It's not very safe - and there aren't a lot of jobs now, but houses are cheap.

Yu Tsan, China

I'm from Shenyang. It's in the north-east of China. It's not a bad place to live. There are a lot of places to go shopping, so that's nice - and there are some great old buildings as well.
