Why did you come to this city?

Are you still in a foreign land?

Do you miss your hometown?

At the moment, I am in Beijing, where are you?

I once asked a question among acquaintances, "Why did you come to Beijing?" Of course, the answer is different.

"Beijing is so prosperous, I want to see it."

"There is no reason, my parents are here, and I am here."

"If you go to school in Beijing, you don't want to change cities."

"There are many opportunities in Beijing."

Before I came to Beijing, I was the first person, because I had never been out of the house since I was a child, and I had never been to a bustling metropolis like Beijing. Beijing on TV is so prosperous that it is the closest place to the national center. You can meet all the big shots, stars and all kinds of interesting activities here.

So, I came to Beijing with great longing for Beijing.

I remember it clearly. It was September at the turn of the spring and autumn. Although the weather is very hot, there is an occasional breeze in the air. I got on the train with my parents and set foot on the road to Beijing alone. I don't know how difficult the road ahead is, but I just want to come to this place I yearn for.

I came to this strange and prosperous city with excitement. Just got off the bus and saw a tall building. I don't know how to express my feelings. I don't know how to get there, but I have the joy of coming to my dream city.

In those days, it brought me too many firsts.

Take the subway for the first time.

In a third-tier city like ours, there is no subway, so we all travel by bus. I felt uneasy when I took the subway. I searched the guide on how to take the subway one night in advance, but I was forced to go the next day.

There are always many people on the street of Beijing Railway Station, standing in line behind the crowd to get their cards, and then following the people in front, they get into the subway and learn how to swipe their cards. I feel dizzy after swiping the card and don't know how to get there. There is also a good-hearted person pointing to the arrow in front and pointing to the way. Only then did I know that it was like this, and now I still remember some embarrassment at that time.

Rent a house for the first time.

Many people say that a house is harder to find than a job, but I found it smoothly, and the landlord and aunt are also very good.

Beijing is a stranger to me, especially as a road idiot. Not surprisingly, I got lost.

At that moment, I was scared and didn't know what to do. It's almost dark and it's going to rain soon. I leafed through the address book in despair, trying to call my parents. Suddenly I saw the phone of the landlord's aunt, and I seemed to see hope and dialed. I nervously said my position. My aunt's sentence "Don't move, I'll come to you" warmed my heart.

Not long after, a middle-aged woman dressed in black came up to me with an umbrella on her head and an umbrella in her hand.

……

I have been in Beijing for more than a year now, and I am familiar with the way home by subway in Beijing. I will never be embarrassed again.

Some people say that Beijing is not good, with a lot of smog and traffic jams, while others say that Beijing is good, prosperous and warm. But even so, it is undeniable that it is indeed a place where people can stay.

At least in my opinion, it kept me.

Many people say that Beijing is very big, and it is a suburb outside the Fifth Ring Road, but I want to say that although the city is big, it is also very warm.

So my answer at this time is because of warmth. What about you?
