Apartment Hotel

I am not happy with this apartment.
The bedroom is to small, and the air conditioned does not work.
The sitting room does not have enough furniture.
There is just one old sofa and no desk.
I like to swim everyday, but the pool is too small and the water is not clean.
The terrace and garden are nice, but there is no furniture there, no tables and chairs.
At night it is very noisy outside the building.

This hotel looks good in the advertisement, but when I get there, everything is different.
The beach is about 20 kilometers away, not just a few minutes by car.
And there are so many people on it.
There is not sand, either.
I hate that kind of beach, don't you ?

KInd of Me

What kind of person am I ?
Well, people often say I am a loner because I have never married.
But I think I am fairly sociable.
I am definitely a bit of an intellectual.
I have many interests: literature, music, world cinema, traveling abroad, and getting to know other cultures.
Perhaps that is why I have never married an had children.
