Helen Karter, November 12

Last weekend, my family went to the Future Houses Exhibition. It was really interesting to see how homes will change in the future. People might live in a lot of different places, like underground or under the sea. Many homes will be smart homes with robot helpers that do the chores. Other smart devices will even cook for us. I do not think I would like to live in a smart home. The technology might not work well. Now, you go to the toilet. In the future, you will use a smart toilet. What if the computer breaks? No, thanks! I really want to live in an eco-friendly home somewhere in the country.
