It’s very quiet, there’s no traffic, and the view is wonderful.

            Our uncle’s family, however, don’t live in a house or a flat. They live on a houseboat. The boat looks small, but it’s quite big inside. Apart from the bathroom, it only has one room, so they have to do everything there – eat, cook, sleep, and watch TV.
