Comments

  1. I’ve been living in my apartment since I and my family relocated to England. I used to live very close to the city centre, but to be honest with you, I found it a bit far to my work place. However, I would like to relocate to another part of the city in the near feasible future.

  2. I have been living on coast for six months. I used to live in UAE for 29 years. I am much happier living on the coast because I can enjoy the weather beautiful, beaches, mountains and much more. Living on the coast is very expensive but it is a quite, calm, pristine place where you can experience the seasons.
