Read the following text and answer the questions below.

When Andrew was seven years old, he moved to Melbourne with his family, from his hometown of Hobart.

Life in his new city was difficult at first, but after quite a while, he learned to adapt and make new friends.  After about three years, they moved again to a small seaside town.

Andrew spent most of his childhood and youth growing up near the beach. He often went swimming and relaxing there on the weekends when it was hot. He loved to go snorkeling and would spend hours swimming around the rock pools, looking for small fish, crabs, and sea life. Sometimes he would try to sneak some shells home and keep them in his room, even though his mother forbade it.

Now he is an adult and lives in the city and doesn’t get much opportunity to swim or snorkel, however there are definite benefits to living near the action. There is plenty of work around and he loves to visit cool cafes and restaurants around his neighbourhood with his wife and two girls.
