I knew that I needed a comfortable place to live. Being out in the city with the noise and crowds would be a challenge. So I chose to live in this complex. It worked well. The grocery store was close, under my apartment complex. And the headmaster at my secondary school lived in the same complex and would pick me up in the morning to ride together. It saved me a taxi ride each day. I am glad I made this choice. My apartment had a washer but no dryer. Everything was hung on the balcony to dry.

Three story mall under the apartment complex

Bowling alley

Studio apartment

TV but no cable

View from my balcony

Lots of smog and pollution and lots of traffic on the road.

Grocery store in the mall near my apartment

I could find everything that I needed in the store.

Lots of fresh fruit and vegetables.

I used my google translator to find items and to ask for help. Everyone wants to practice their English skills.
