 My Home
Hello, my name is Andria Hou from “European school'' and I am going to talk about my house.
I live in digomi in tbilisi, in a good neighbourhood. I have an small and old
apartment/flat where I stay with my little sister, big brother, an uncle who is here for few
days and my parents.
I have two pets a dog named Loki and a cat named Luna they even have a room for themselves
And that's why it is one of My favourite parts about the house. There are a few parrots, a cat
and a dog. Of course they are allowed to come outside or the room but they like to stay in there
because that’s where we save the treats and the food.
My second favourite part about the house is the kitchen. I love that place because that’s where
Is all the food and also because I love cooking and trying to make new types of food. It’s one of
My hobbies.
The unusual things about the apartment are in my parents room. I share a room with my
Older brother and my uncle. It’s a big room with windows and a balcony.

My parents decided
moved into this house a few years ago for school and for a job. For me it’s a pretty small house
For 7 people and 2 pets but we manage because in a year we are going to move into a new
House which will be 3 times the size of the house we are in now.
