Please review my IELTS SPEAKING part 1 answers.

Where is your hometown?

Buon Ma Thuot is my hometown. It is the capital city of Dak Lak province, which is located in the central highlands of Vietnam.

2 Is that a big city or a small place?

It is just a small city with about half a million people.


How long have you been living there?

I have been living here since I was born, but I was out of town for about five years to study at a university in another city - so just over 20 years.


Do you think you will continue living there for a long time?
Yes, I think so. Several years of studying at a university in another city have made me realize that nowhere is as comfortable as my home. The streets in Buon Ma Thuot city are not crowded and the air quality is quite fine. Because the city is located on a highland, flooding rarely happens. And the key factor that makes me want to settle here rather than elsewhere is the food. I quite dislike the taste of food in other cities, and even in some other countries. I think it is because I am already used to the food here.


Please describe your hometown a little.
Buon Ma Thuot is just like all other cities with closely packed buildings and a network of streets that are crowded with vehicles during rush hour. But it also has various unique features. For example, it is known for producing high-quality coffee, which has always monopolized the Vietnam market. So coffee shops can be found everywhere, and there is even a museum specifically for exhibiting coffee-related artifacts and tools, called The World Coffee Museum. Buon Ma Thuot is also famous for its majestic waterfalls, primitive jungles, and ancient stilt houses made of wood or bamboo, but they are quite far from the city centre.
