Georgie and Neil have a real conversation in easy English about moving house – changing the place where you live. Learn to talk about packing, removal companies and how to protect your fragile…
Um, today, Neil, in this conversation, we're talking about moving house.
So when was the last time you moved house?
Oh, I moved house probably 12 years ago.
Oh, wow.
Um, and why did you move to where you live now?
Because my family was getting bigger [laughs].
[laughs]
More children need more space-
Mm
...
Mm.
How about you?
Um, I, I rent my flat, and bef- the place I was living before, um, the owners of the place wanted to sell the house.
Um, so I needed to move [laughs] because I couldn't live there anymore.
Um, and also my friend had this flat, and he was offering me very cheap rent, so that's why I live there.
Um, but I'm very happy there because it's between two really nice parks, it has good transport links, and yeah, it was a good, a good decision.
And how was the move itself?
The move was actually very easy because, um, I don't have many possessions.
I'm a bit of a minimalist.
The reason is because I moved country, so I, I just didn't really have many things to bring back to the UK.
Um, so I didn't need a big van or anything.
I just ordered a taxi and put all of my bags [laughs] in the taxi, and it was very easy.
And what about you?
Uh, it was the opposite of that [laughs].
