Misha’s house


Hello, my name is Misha; I live in Astrakhan, Russia. I live in a new 9-storied apartment house. There is a big supermarket on the ground floor and it’s very convenient to do everyday shopping. Our apartment is on the fifth floor.


 

 

It’s very comfortable and well planned. There are three rooms, a kitchen, a bathroom and a hall in our apartment.

There is also a balcony and we enjoy a lovely view of the river. We use our living room as a dining room and as a sitting room, because it’s very large. In the middle of the room there is a big table and six tables around it. Opposite the window there is a wall unit with lots of books, a TV-set and a DVD player.


There are two comfortable armchairs and a small coffee table in the right-hand corner. There is also a sofa and an electric fire in our living room.

We like living room best of all because in the evenings we gather there to have tea, watch TV, talk and rest.


There are two bedrooms in our apartment. The first one is our parent’s bedroom. I share a bedroom with my younger brother Anton. There are two beds, a wardrobe, a desk, an armchair and several bookshelves in my room. There is a thick carpet on the floor.

The walls of our bedroom are light-brown and there are some big posters on them. My brother and I like our bedroom very much, but from time to time we change it round. We quite often move our beds and change posters on the walls.


 

Our kitchen is large and light. It is very well equipped. We have a fridge, a freezer, a microwave oven, a coffeemaker and a toaster.

We haven’t got a dishwasher yet but we are going to buy it. My family and I like our apartment.
