My house is built fire-proof. It has a concrete floor, cement planks on the weather side and a roof made of corrugated iron. The windows have an aluminum frame and are double glazed. My house has many rooms. A kitchen. A living room, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, three toilets, a small office or study and a laundry room. The house has two floors. A staircase leads to the upper floor. The floor is covered with a dark carpet, and all doors, walls and ceilings are painted white. The door handles have a golden color. In the washroom and in the kitchen, the floor is covered with linoleum


​
Mein Haus ist feuerfest gebaut. Es hat einen Betonfussboden,  Zementplanken an der Wetterseite und ein Dach aus Wellblechplatten.

Die Fenster haben einen Alluminiumrahmen und sind doppelt verglast. Mein Haus hat viele Zimmer. 

Eine Küche, ein Wohnzimmer, vier Schlafzimmer, zwei Badezimmer, drei Toiletten, ein kleines Büro oder Arbeitszimmer und einen Waschraum.

Das Haus hat zwei Stockwerke. Eine Treppe führt zum oberen Stock.

Der Fussboden ist mit einem dunkelen Teppich belegt.

Alle Türen, Wände und Decken sind mit  weisser Farbe gestrichen.  

​Die Türklinken haben eine goldene Farbe. Im Waschraum und in der Küche ist der Fussboden mit Linolium belegt
.

I greet every visitor with a warm welcome or how are you. I offer every visitor a cup of tea or coffee with sugar, milk or cream. I sometimes offer cookies or cakes with cream. There are many types of cake, apple pie, plum cake, strawberry cake, crumble cake and on special days there is a Black Forest cake. It's always nice to hear news and sometimes debate problems. We often watch a film on TV

Ich begrüsse jeden Besucher mit Herzlich Wilkommen oder  wie geht es dir.

Ich biete jedem Besucher eine Tasse Tee oder Kaffee mit Zucker, Milch oder Sahne.

Ich biete manchmal Kekse oder Kuchen mit Sahne an. 

Da gibt es viele Sorten von Kuchen, Apfelkuchen, Pflaumenkuchen, Erdbeerkuchen, Streuselkuchen und an besonderen Tagen gibt es eine Schwarzwaldtorte.

Es ist immer sehr schön Neuigkeitem zu hören und manchmal Probleme zu debatieren.

​Oft sehen wir uns  einen Film im Fernseher an

My house is surrounded by a garden; I have the garden divided into 2 types. In front of the house, I have a flower garden, in the back of the house, I have a vegetable garden. I have different flowers flowering in every season. From November to May the roses give a beautiful display of flowers, supplemented by agapanthus and from February to May with a row of Dahlias. In the winter and early spring the jonquils and daffodils herald the coming of warmer weather again. In the centre of the flower garden, I grow three lavender bushes who flower before the roses come on again. The whole garden is framed by eucalyptus trees. The vegetable garden gives me a year-round supply of vegetables. All year I harvest silver beet, parsley and beetroot. From Christmas to May I harvest tomatoes, lettuce, potatoes, onions and carrots and I can store any surplus potatoes and carrots to last almost all year. From March till November I harvest broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage, and that way I live fairly healthy and self-sufficient.


Mein Haus ist von einem Garten umgeben, ich habe den Garten in 2 Arten unterteilt.

Vor dem Haus habe ich einen Blumengarten, hinter dem Haus habe ich einen Gemüsegarten.

Ich habe zu jeder Jahreszeit verschiedene Blüten.

Von November bis Mai geben die Rosen eine schöne Blumenschau, ergänzt durch Agapanthus und von Februar bis Mai mit einer Reihe von Dahlien.

Im Winter und frühen Frühling kündigen die Jonquillen und Narzissen das Kommen des wärmeren Wetters wieder an.

In der Mitte des Blumengartens züchte ich drei Lavendelbüsche, die blühen, bevor die Rosen wieder aufgehen.

Der gesamte Garten ist von Eukalyptusbäumen eingerahmt. Der Gemüsegarten versorgt mich das ganze Jahr über mit Gemüse.

Das ganze Jahr über ernte ich  (Mangold)Silberrüben, Petersilie und Rote Beete. Von Weihnachten bis Mai ernte ich Tomaten, Salat, Kartoffeln, Zwiebeln und Karotten und kann überschüssige Kartoffeln und Karotten für fast das ganze Jahr aufbewahren.

​Von März bis November ernte ich Brokkoli, Blumenkohl und Kohl, und auf diese Weise lebe ich ziemlich gesund und selbst versorgend  (autark)
