地道美语听力播客:Places to Live寻找住处
Finding a new place to live isn’t always easy. I have been living in the same apartment for nine years and I thought it was time for a change.
I have always wanted to buy a condo or a townhouse , but I didn’t have the money for adown payment . But now, I have a little money saved up and I want to buy a place of my own.
I didn’t want to go through a real estate agent yet so I started looking around the city on my own. I wasn’t sure if I wanted a townhouse or a single-family home . I didn’t want to live in a multi-story building anymore, not even if I had a penthouse unit. It was too noisy and I wanted a backyard for my dog, Shiloh.
I looked at a duplex as well as some traditional houses. One of the last houses I saw was atwo-bedroom, one-bath bungalow . It was small enough for one person, but big enough for me and my dog. When Shiloh saw the backyard, I think it was love at first sight . I’d like to say that I pick the house, but really, it was Shiloh’s choice. I don’t think he would ever forgiveme if I didn’t buy that house.
