Example
Currently I live in a town called Gorredijk. 
What I like about it is that it is that it is small, so you know may people. It also has a canal through the village where many boats go through during summer.  Furthermore there are many clothes shops and different supermarkets. 
 What I don't like about it is that is doesn't has good restaurants or bars to go to.
