Sample Answer
Last summer I finally visited my grandparents who live in a quiet, picturesque village situated on the bank of the river. During the pandemic, I was trying to stay away from grandparents in order to reduce the risk of infection. I missed them very much. What’s more, my grandpa said he was more afraid to die of loneliness than of coronavirus.
So I decided to spend a couple of days in the village and kill two birds with one stone: spend time with my grandparents and get away from the noises and bustle of the city.
My grandparents live in a beautiful, quaint house with a lovely garden all around dotted with blooming orchids. Being there is like traveling back in time. Everything reminds me of my carefree childhood: my toys ,oldCDs, my bicycle. It feels like you step into another world. All the walls are still covered with old wallpaper. And my grandmother doesn’t allow us to remove it. And she refuses to get their house refurbished ’cause she wants to keep all their memories alive. She says they both love their 50-year old chairs and armchairs, their old wooden table in the kitchen, paintings, clay pots, old pictures, lots of things that they bought when they were young.
She’s right. There’s something special about this old house. It’s a magical place. I really love spending time there. So last summer I had a really good time there, as always. In the daytime, I went fishing and just explored the countryside. In the evenings I enjoyed the sunset sitting in the backyard of the house, sipping hot tea and munching buns with cinnamon baked by my grandmother. I wish I could go there more often.
