I feel fortunate that I am living in a peaceful village in southern Viet Nam. The scenery here is beautiful and
picturesque with vast fieldsNstretchingNlong distances. The houses are surrounded by green trees. There are
lakes, ponds, andNcanalsNhere and there. The air is fresh and cool. Life here seems to move more slowly
than in cities. The people work very hard. They grow vegetables,NcultivateNrice, and raise cattle. At harvest
time, they use combine harvesters to harvest their crops. Many families live by growing fruit trees in
theNorchards. Others live by fishing in lakes, ponds, and canals. Life in the village is very
comfortable for children. They play traditional games. Sometimes they help their parents
pick fruit and herd cattle. People in my village know each other well. They are friendly and
hospitable. They often meet each other in the evening, eating fruit, playing chess, singing
folk songs, and chatting about everyday activities.

I have many hobbies, but I like doing martial arts the most.
At first, my dad taught me some karate when I was ten years old. He took me to lessons at the sports center
because I enjoyed doing it so much. Now, I do karate and other martial arts with my younger brother. We
always practice in our garden because we can’t do it in the living room. We have martial arts lessons on
Saturday mornings. Mornings are the best time to do martial arts because we have a lot of energy at that time
