My name's Nam. I live with my parents in Ho Chi Minh City, a very big city in Vietnam. There are a lot of people living here, so it is very crowded and noisy. It also has lots of high building. Life in this city is more exciting than life in my hometown.

During summer holidays, my parents and I often go back to our hometown, Nghe An.

It is central Vietnam. It is smaller than Ho Chi Minh City. Life here is more quiet than life in the city because there are not so many people and much traffic. I think that living in the countryside is easier than living in a big city because things are cheaper and people are friendly.
