Living basement in summer time is very covinent and awesome because it is very cool. However, the winter is coming soon and I don't recommend you living basement no matter how it is cheap.Tell you the truth, I had lived in basement at homestay for 11 months. For a young and brave boy, it is not a problem at all because I know my purpose is to study English at homestay, so I ignore the living condition. You'd better find an apartment or house. * [9 Z" ?( f2 i0 G 0 w3 o5 R2 M# k: j. g1 PGood luck.
