when i was young my ideal house is close to a beautiful beach and i can see the beautiful beach every day and can hear the sounds of nature, i feel very relaxed if i live in that kind of house but now my ideal house is in SH near the huangpu river and i like highest floor / top floor because there is a little bit silence than other place. In my opinion I like that kind of house which has a big balcony cause every morning the sun will be shine the living room, but in SH that kind of house is very expensive so that is my dream house but I think it is difficult to buy one.

when i was young my ideal house was one that would be close to a beautiful beach which I could look out at and see every day and could hear the sounds of nature, i would feel very relaxed if i lived in that kind of house but now my ideal house is in SH near the huangpu river and i prefer the top floor over lower floors / rather than lower floor because / since the top floor is more quiet than lower floors / since it is more quiet. I’m really into the kind of house which has a big balcony cause every morning the sun will be shines through the living room, but in SH that kind of house is very expensive / pricey / not cheap at all so that is my dream house but I think it is difficult to buy one.
