Daniel and Sofia live in the same neighborhood. Daniel’s apartment is next to a grocery store. Sofia’s house is across from a small park. They like their neighborhood because it has many useful places.
Every morning, Daniel walks to the bakery on the corner. “I always buy fresh bread here,” he says. Sofia does not go to the bakery often. “I usually eat breakfast at home,” she says.
In the afternoon, Sofia goes to the library. “I go there twice a week to study,” she says. Daniel does not go to the library. “I usually study at a coffee shop near my apartment,” he says.
On Saturdays, Daniel and Sofia meet at the park. “The park is between my house and your apartment,” Sofia says. “It’s a perfect place to meet!”
Daniel and Sofia’s neighborhood also has a pharmacy, a bank, and a post office. “The pharmacy is next to the supermarket,” Daniel says. “It’s easy to find.”
“Yes,” Sofia says. “And the bank is across from the movie theater. I go there once a month.”
They love their neighborhood because everything is close. “A good neighborhood makes life easier!” Sofia says.
“Yes, and we can walk everywhere!” Daniel says.
