HOUSE


Luz Miryam says:

There are several types of housing. I want to talk about the types of housing in Colombia. The types of housing in Colombia vary depending on the climate zone. For example in the Colombian Caribbean coast the homes have very high ceilings in order to have aeration, this happens also in hot areas such as the eastern plains.
In the cold zone the houses are characterized by using materials such as bricks that give a little more than shelter to the houses and the roofs do not exceed the two meters high.
In the big cities like Bogotá and Medellín the apartments abound. These vary in size and quality finishes. They can be luxurious or simple. In recent years have been imposed ways of living according to the need, so for example there are housing solutions that fit the budgets.

The most important for me is to live in a comfortable place the rest is embellishment.

Merly Jiménez says:
In the city and in the suburb, of style the life are different. Your meet big house, little house, appartment, chalet and farm.
I like big house, where I can to be free. A house with things curiosity, furniture, modern equipment. Today in day, the space of home are very confortables and commodious.

In the little space of home, your find there is a bathroom, a bedroom, a little kitchen and sometimes there is a living room.
In the medium space of home, as my house, your find of two or three floors, there are two bathrooms, there are three bedrooms, there is a ktchen, there is a garage, there is a dinning room, there is a living room, there is a hall and a court.
In the big space of home, has got four bathrooms, there are six bedrooms, there are threee living rooms, there are two garages, two dining room, three halls, two garden, two courts and there is a library room.

To live in Bogotá is very good and funny.
