The first question is: Do you live in a house or a flat? At the moment I’m living in a flat because I live in a city and flats are a lot cheaper than houses. Question number two: What is your flat like? My flat has two bedrooms, a small kitchen, a standard-sized living room and a small bathroom....") Tag: Visual edit
