F     PERFECT FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

                                              MICRO HOMES. ROOM FOR JUST ONE!

42.   _______

How would you feel about living in a house
that was only 2.6m long by 2.6m wide by 2.6m high? Well, in Europe some people
are doing just that. Micro compact (‘m-ch’) homes are very small homes that are
no bigger than the size of a small room!

43.   _______

So how do you fit not just a sleeping and
living area, but also a study and bathing area into a space that is only 2.6m
3?  Well, in m-ch home , each area has more than one uses, because you can
change the place of the seats, beds and kitchen appliances. So, the dining area
(which is also the study area) becomes a sleeping space by sliding the dining
table into a wall. And the entrance way doubles as a bathroom – the front door
becomes the shower door!

44.   _______

The company makes these tiny homes says
that they designed them to solve the difficulty many Europeans have in getting
their own home. Too many people cannot afford accommodation in Europe and these
low-cost homes are perfect for someone who wants a place where they can live
for a short time.

45.   ________

The first people to try living in m-ch
homes were university students. Students love them because although small, they
are very modern with flatscreen TVs and comfortable furniture.

46.   ________

So what’s ‘micro-living’ like? Well, you
have to be a very neat, tidy and organized person, because in order to do one
thing, you have to first finish another and put everything away. Also, the lack
of space means you can’t have many personal items. But if you want a cheap,
cosy, modern space that you can call your own, a micro home may be for you!
