‘Hi there! Do you live in this neighbourhood?’
‘Yes, I do. I am living here for about one year. It is a very nice place. What do you think?’
‘I agree. It looks very nice. I just moved here two weeks ago.’
‘Really! So, welcome to the neighbourhood. Where did you move from?’
‘I lived in another city before this. But I got a new job here, so I decided to move here.’
‘That’s exciting. And what do you do?’
‘I’m a software engineer. I work for a tech company here in town.’
‘I see. I am a teacher at the local primary school. It’s not as interesting as your job, but I love it!’
‘That’s nice. I think that teaching is a really important job.’
‘Thank you. So what brings you here today?’
‘Well, I need to buy a few things at the grocery shop. Is there any grocery shop nearby?’
‘Sure. There is a supermarket just down the road. It’s about a five-minute walk from here.’
‘That’s perfect. Thanks for the directions.’
‘No problem. By the way, did you try the new cafe on the Main street? It’s really good!’
‘No, I didn’t. What do they sell there?’
‘They have great coffee and sandwiches. It’s a nice place to sit and relax.’
‘Sounds good. I’ll have to check it out. Thanks for the tip!’
‘You’re welcome. Let me know if you need any more tips on the neighbourhood.’
‘Will do. Thanks again!’
