my room is not very big. my room is a bedroom and a study at the same time. but it is a very nice, comfortable and cozy. there isn't much furniture in it, only the things that i need most of all. the furniture is built-in. so it doesn’t take much space.
there is a small window in my room but it faces the park, so the view is really wonderful!
the walls of my room are papered in a white colour and the white and green curtains on the window match the wallpaper perfectly.
besides, there are a lot of flowers in my room. i love taking care of the flowers and water them regularly.
