The Simple Present vs the Present Progressive

Living in Tokyo is a mix of old and new. Every morning, the trains are super busy with people going to work or school. The trains run a lot and are always on time. Tokyo is cool because it has the latest tech stuff but also old traditions.
In the morning, I often grab a quick breakfast like rice balls or miso soup from a little shop. For lunch, I usually have something fast like a bento box or ramen at a place with many food stands. After work, I like to chill with friends at izakayas (kind of like bars) or walk in bright, busy places like Shibuya or Shinjuku.
Tokyo has both old and new sights – in the buildings, the food, and festivals. I love checking out different parts of the city, tasting new foods, and going to temples.
For fun, we do lots of outdoor stuff. We might enjoy cherry blossoms in a park or go for a hike close to the city. At night, Tokyo is buzzing with music, tasty food, and so much to see.
The best thing about living in Tokyo is seeing how it keeps changing but also stays the same. Tokyo helps you enjoy both cool new stuff and old traditions. If you visit, try to see both the modern and traditional sides. And definitely use the trains – they’re the best way to see the city.

Living in London is like being in a big storybook and a fast city at the same time. Every morning, I either walk quickly or take the big red bus or Tube. I see old buildings and very tall new ones. London is full of history but also very modern.
In the morning, I eat something quick like coffee and a small cake. People here work but also enjoy their time. At lunch, many of us go to big parks like Hyde Park or walk by the big river, the Thames.
When I’m not working, I might watch a play, have a drink at a pub, or visit different parts of the city. London has many stories from the past and people from many places. You can see this in markets and museums.
I like to be outside, walking in parks or seeing old places on weekends.
At night, there are many places to go, like dance clubs or old pubs. I love the music places the most.
What I love about London is it’s big and full of stories but also has quiet spots. If you come to visit, look at more than just the famous places. Walk around different areas. Each part of the city has its own story.

Living in Paris, France, feels like being in a beautiful story. Every day starts with a calm coffee and a croissant at a small café on the sidewalk. Paris is special because it has pretty buildings and the Seine River. People here like to enjoy what’s around them, slowly, on their way to work or school.
For lunch, eating outside is nice, maybe having a sandwich or salad. In the afternoon, I like to look around small shops or see an art show. Dinner is a big meal, eaten late, at a cozy restaurant or bistro. After that, walking through the streets that are lit up at night is lovely. It’s very romantic.
Paris mixes old beauty with living today. You can see this in the art, the old buildings, and the way we have meals. I love to discover different parts of the city, try new things to eat, and see old churches.
For fun, we enjoy being outside. Maybe sitting in a park or by the river. Paris at night has nice music, great food, and pretty views.
The best part of living in Paris is feeling the city’s love and history. It teaches you to love beautiful moments and old stories. If you visit, take your time to see both the famous places and small streets. Walking around Paris is the best way to feel its heart.
