My dream home is a flying home. I get the idea from the film Up. Look at the photo! Isn't it a cool home? Do you think it is a strange idea?

The house is made of wood, so it is light. And how can I make it fly? I plan to tie some helium（氦气球）to the house. They bring the house up into the air. It can fly for one hour at a time. It takes us to a different place every season.

The house is not very big in size. We only need six comfortable rooms, a kitchen, a diningroom and a modern bathroom. The room flies to warm places in winter and cool places in summer.

Where can we get energy and water? We get energy from the sun and we collect rainwater to use.

So it's a green house.

I think it would bea cool home. But my parents say it is a crazy idea. They ask me what school I can study in if I live in that home. And they also say they must work in Nanjing. They can’t live in a different place every season.

This is a great idea, right?

Do you like the flying home? I hope my dream can come true one day.
