I’m from a medium size city in the north of China. It’s winter now here and the weather is dry and cold. The pace of life here isn’t very fast and the price level isn’t high. My grandparents have a big farm and live in the countryside. When I was young, I went to their farm for a week every summer. The farm produces tons of pears every year, which are famous around here because they’re juicy and sweet, but it's a shame I don’t like their taste. The city I’ve grown up in isn’t very advanced but it’s pretty cozy.
