My building

I live in an apartment block in a busy street in a capital city. Three families live here.

Patrick and Layla live on the first floor. They’re retired teachers from London. I think Patrick is 75 and Layla is 70. He’s very thin and tall. He’s more than 6 foot 5. Layla is average height and weight. She’s neat and is interested in fashion. They’re serious and intelligent. Their house is very clean and full of books. They’re quiet. Patrick doesn’t talk a lot, but he always says hello when I see him. Layla is really good at painting, and her pictures are on the walls of their apartment.

Ahmed and Lukas are both students at the university. They live on the second floor. Ahmed is short and heavy, and he’s from Morocco. He has black hair, and he likes cooking. He talks a lot. Lukas is average height and has blond hair. He comes from Poland. Their apartment is messy. They sometimes have friends visiting them on Friday night. They make a lot of noise!

My name is William. I live on the top floor with my wife, Jenny, and our baby, Sam. I work in an office, and Jenny is a stay-at-home mom. I’m 25, and Jenny is 24. Sam is six months old. I’m interested in cycling and running. Jenny isn’t interested in cycling. She likes yoga. I’m friendly and noisy, but my wife is shy. She’s kind and helpful. She always goes shopping for Patrick and Layla downstairs.
