Home country
Which part of your country do you want to live in?
Although I was born and raised in Hanoi, if I had to choose, I would go for/opt for
…. as my living destination.
I would like to live in the heart of the city where I could enjoy/ relish better
opportunities, be it employment, education or healthcare services, you name it.
In fact, the economy in megacities is relatively thriving, meaning that there are
much more job opportunities/vacancies for employees. Also, since most public
schools are subsidized by the governments, children could access to cutting-edge
teaching equipment and qualified teachers. Lastly, I believe that it is easier to
seek medical treatment in urban centers as there is a growing number of
hospitals and clinics introduced there, which provide effective and timely
treatments.
