City Life or Country Life

I am living in the suburbs of Taipei. So many people moved from southern Taiwan and settled there that this boom town has been very crowded.My family lies at the intersection of two cheap straighteners. Every day, we are bothered by disturbing noise, and exhaust fumes from passing cars. Besides, about 100 meters away from my house stands a famous night market, which attracts thousands of chi pink dazzle every night. The garbage-left-overs, fruit peels, dirty paper napkins is scattered on both sides of the streets. I think the life quality of this community is getting worse.I always dream of living in the country. The serene country life will certainly calm my nerves and slow down my pace of life. Early in the morning when you are awakened by the singing of the birds, you can breathe the fresh air and enjoy the beautiful chi hair straightener around you. In addition, people in the country are friendly and hospitable. They will invite you home for tea or chat with you as they work on the farm. How I wish to love in the country!
