Topic: having my own place

Thesis: looking for a place to call home

---

A place to call home is something everybody needs.  If you don’t have it, then you’re trying to find it.

Here in Hanoi, you will find even the smallest spaces are filled.  A gap between two buildings has a noodle auntie.  A stair step has a chicken on it.  Every size and shape of space is occupied.

I have come here to find my own space to occupy.  Please make room for one more!  I want to find a space that is quiet and peaceful.  I hope to have local neighbors who are friendly.  Maybe near a park if possible.

I need a place to call my own, just like everybody else.  Hanoi is so full of people, but I am hopeful that I can find a space to be.

Q. Some people try to own very little and don’t want a big space.  Others would like to have more space to feel comfortable.  What type of space would be comfortable for you?

Q. Tell me something about your neighbors.
