1. Where is your hometown?

I was born and raised here in Hanoi, so I guess this city is my hometown. I’ve been living here for nearly 25 years.

2. Is that a big city or a small place?

Sample answer: My hometown isn’t a major city in Vietnam but it’s not small either. As far as I know, it has a population of 5 million people. So the urban area is always crowded with people. It’s also the largest city of the province by land area.

3. Do you like your hometown?

Sample answer: Yes, I do. Our local food is delicious. Beef balls are famous in my hometown. Tasty food always brings happiness to people.

3. What do you like (most) about your hometown?

Sample answer: There are many public parks in my hometown. I like them very much. When I feel tired, I always go to the park with my friends. So it is a good place to make us relaxed.

4. Is there anything you dislike about it?

Sample answer: There are traffic jams in every city. My city is no exception. They are quite annoying especially during rush hours. That is the only thing I dislike about it.

5. How long have you been living there?

Sample answer: I’ve been living in my hometown since I was born. I’ve never thought about leaving my hometown because my entire social circle is there and the cost of living is pretty low. However, I also want to work in a different city for a few years to broaden my horizons.

6. Do you like living there?

Sample answer: Yeah, I really love it. When I moved here, I thought it was overwhelming. But now I can’t imagine living anywhere else. There are always cool things happening here. For example, a lot of singers come to our city for their concerts.

7. Do you think you will continue living there for a long time?

Sample answer: I’m not sure. But I don’t think I would rule out living in the country. Maybe when I’m ready to settle down, I could move to the country and enjoy the peace and quiet there. It’s really hard to tell where life will take me. I might want to just keep living in the city.

8. Please describe your hometown a little.

Sample answer: I live in the quieter part of a big city. Meaning, I can take transit downtown very easily but all the hustle and bustle isn’t part of my normal day to day. There are lots of grade schools and bakeries in my neighborhood. And a lot of families live here too.

9. What's your hometown famous for?

Sample answer: You see, as it’s an industrial city, I’m afraid, there’s nothing it can boast of. There are neither ancient buildings nor other places of interest that could possibly attract tourists. However, it is in my city that the best shoes are produced.

10. How often do you visit your hometown? 

Not as much as I should. I only get to visit about once a year now to see my family because I’m really busy with work and it’s quite far away, but I hope to visit more in the future.

11. What’s the oldest part of your hometown? 

There is an old Norman castle that sits on top of the highest hill of the town. It’s a ruin now, but there are some breathtaking views from it and it’s easy to see why they chose that site for a castle, because you can see for miles around

12. Do many people visit your town?

Thousands of tourists visit every summer. They come from the capital city mostly to get away from the hustle and bustle and enjoy the peace and quiet. There are more and more international tourists visiting because lots of scenes from the TV show ‘Game of Thrones’ were shot just outside the village.

13. How has your hometown changed over the years? 

Since I was a child the town has almost doubled in size and population. It used to consist of just one main street, but now there are many new housing developments and apartments next to the water. With all these new people moving in, it has changed the character of the town a little bit, people are not as friendly as before.

14. Are there good transportation links to your town?

The public transport system consists of just buses that pass through the town on an hourly basis. One bus goes north to the capital city which is really convenient if you need to do any shopping and the other bus goes south where you can switch buses and go across the border to the Republic of Ireland, so you could say we have international transport links which is not bad for a little town like ours.

15. Would you recommend the town to people with children?

Yes and no. It is obviously a great place to bring up kids because there are so many things for them to do like swim in the sea, play in the forest and run on the beach. However, the good schools are pretty far away and I remember having to get up really early every morning to catch a bus to school that was 20 miles away.
