Act out from English.

Yair Shira, Where do you like to live In an apartment or in a hotel?
Shira
Yair My parents like to live in an apartment, but I like living in a hotel.
Shira
Why?
Yair In apartments there is usually a shower stall, and in a hotel there’s
Shira
a big big bathtub. You can fill the bathtub with foam and play. In
Yair apartments, there is usually one small balcony. In a hotel there’s

Shira a big balcony in every room and you can see the view from there.
Yair In an apartment, it’s boring and there aren’t any friends. In a
Shira
Yair hotel, you can go down to the lobby and find friends. And do you

know what the best thing in a hotel is?

What?
“Why don’t you tidy up your room?” I feel that I’m not on
vacation, because all day I need to tidy up. In a hotel I don’t need

to tidy up my room. When we rent an apartment, my mom says to
me all day long: “Why don’t you tidy up your room?” I feel that
I’m not on vacation, because all day I need to tidy up.
Oh, that sounds exactly like my mom. When we’re on vacation as

well she tidies and tidies all day: Tidies the kitchen, the living
room, the dining area [corner]. I don’t understand it: You can tidy

at home, too. Vacation is for having fun.
When I’ll be big, I’ll never tell my children to tidy their room.

But maybe your husband will tell them to tidy up?
I don’t think so. I want to get married to a husband that likes a

mess.
That’s an excellent idea.
