4 - Your hometown
my hometown is Cam Ranh,
which is a coastal city in Khanh Hoa province, in central Vietnam.
It’s about 40 kilometres south of Nha Trang.
Cam Ranh is known for its deep-water bay,
which is one of the best natural place
We have beautiful beaches,
with famous places for tourists: Binh Ba Shrimp (Tom hum)
and a growing airport that connects to many domestic and international flights.
I really enjoy the quiet atmosphere and fresh seafood.
The pace of life is slower than in bigger cities,
so I can relax on the beach after work.
And the fish and shrimp there taste amazing.
Dislike:
Yes, maybe the public transport is not very good. There aren’t many buses or trains, so you need a motorbike or a car to get around.
Also, in the high season, the roads can get crowded with tourists.
Changes:
Over the last few years, Cam Ranh Airport was expanded,
so now there are more flights,
and many new resorts have been built.
⇒ This has brought more jobs,
but it also means that some local shops have closed, and prices have risen.
Advices:
If someone wants to escape the busy city life and enjoy nature
⇒ Cam Ranh is a great choice.
Just be prepared to rent a motorbike or take taxis to explore the area.
Sample Answer
I’d like to talk about Cam Ranh, my hometown in central Vietnam. It’s a coastal city in Khanh Hoa province, just south of the famous resort city Nha Trang. Cam Ranh is quite small compared to other cities, but it has a beautiful bay that is very deep and calm, making it ideal for ships and boats.
The climate is warm all year round, and we have long stretches of sand beaches where locals and a few tourists swim and sunbathe. Many people in Cam Ranh work in fishing, farming, or in the tourism sector, such as resorts and hotels. In recent years, the airport was modernized, which created more jobs and brought more visitors.
What I like most is the relaxed lifestyle and the availability of fresh seafood every day. However, I don’t like that public transport is limited, so if you don’t have your own vehicle, it can be hard to go around. Despite that, I feel proud of my hometown because it combines natural beauty with a friendly community. Whenever I go back home, I always feel calm and connected to my roots.
