Sample Answer of Describe an Interesting Neighbour You Like Most

I live in a small compound with a few other neighbours, but the most interesting of them is Francis; he is very friendly and handy, always happy and willing to help anyone out of any challenging situation at home. He is an electrical engineer, single in his mid-thirties but very mature and responsible.

I first met him when I moved in 2years, and he was very welcoming and hospitable; he even offered to help me clean up my new apartment and fix the lights and spoiled kitchen tap for me. This was something I knew I couldn’t handle.

I was really excited because this was someone I had just met, and his niceness was overwhelming.

I find him quite fascinating because he is down to earth, outstanding and soft-spoken, he carries everyone along, for instance, When I was planning my birthday party last month he was not left out, as usual, Francis handled almost every aspect of the day, he made arrangements with the caterer in charge of food and drinks, I was completely blown away when the caterer informed me that he had already settled the bills for food and drinks, nobody had ever done that for me, and it meant a lot to me that a neighbour could actually go that length to make me happy. My other neighbour, Peace, later told me Francis does the same thing for everyone during their birthdays, except he is out of town.
