Country life is better than city life 

I believe that everyone should live in the countryside because it is not polluted and it is the calmest place ever! It is essential to live there. Firstly, living in the countryside can prevent so many common illnesses like colds and flu’s. With all those people roaming around you are bound to get sick. As well as this, if you are older or have a weak immune system you can end up sick too! I would not want to be lying in bed just because of a cold! Do you like getting woken up by loud traffic noises two hours before you would like to; by cars and other vehicles? In the countryside, you can sleep all you want! In addition, sleep has its benefits. If you don't have sleep then it can affect your studies and health. Finally in the city, it is jam packed full of shops, people, and cars. Imagine a picnic with car noises and smoke in your face? That would be horrible! On the other hand, in the countryside you have all the space you could ever need! You can also do so many cool things; like climbing dirt mountains (like we did in year four camp) Overall I believe that it is critical to live in the countryside because there are so many things and to do!
