These ‘differences’ can refer to physical attributes, or perhaps behavioural or personal preferences and attitudes. Social scientists tend to use difference when looking at gender, class, age, sexuality and race or ethnicity. (Allen and Blakeley, 2015, p. 25) So many people use City Road for different…

Not being able to find a job while having to pay the high living expense, we decided to move…

The roads in winter are left unplowed and unattended. Police aren't as vigilant in the hamlets and small villages as they could be. The city and the country hardly interact, if only for social events, or school. I…
