1. Are you from a big city or a small town?

I come from a small province with slightly more than 1 million people. It has breathtaking view of picturesque landscapes with rolling mountains and greenish lakes. However, due to the increasing economy, a number of business, especially in sugarcane, are invested in my hometown that turns it into a promising area.

2. Please describe your hometown a little?

My hometown is both traditional and modern. On the one hand, tradition is preserved by a number of festivals celebrated by local people, and the locals and authorities preserve the historical sites for tourism and education. On the other hand, a whole lot of high-rise buildings as residential places or shopping malls are built, which turns our little hometown into a worth-living place.

3. What do you like about your hometown?

I like the hospitality and the love of people there which I hardly find them in my current place. Everyone is living close together and willing to give others a hand when they need help.

4. Is there anything you dislike about it?

Personally, it’s a bit boring for me because as a small town, there is not much shopping mall or any other means of entertainment. The streets are not very crowded as well. However, I believe that it has been improving day by day and becoming a potential hotspot due to the increasing number of annual visitors.

5. Do you think you will continue living there for a long time?

To be honest, I hope I could come back there one day to visit my relatives and friends, but to settle down my life there is not my plan. I am getting familiar with city life and there are more job opportunities for my future career.

6. Are there any changes you would like to make in your hometown?

I would like to ameliorate the infrastructure conditions there so that I can avoid being stuck in the traffic jam during the rush hours.
