Sleep Bus

As the saying goes, “East or west, home is best.” But not everyone has a house. In fact, many people cant find good places to sleep every night in the world. An Australian man Simon was one of them when he was 19. He slept in his car at that time.

Now as a successful business man, Simon doesnt need to worry about where to sleep anymore. Last year when he saw a homeless man sleeping in a busy street, he felt sad because he didnt forget his experience. He decided to do something for the homeless.

After months of study, he had an idea—to creat a charity project called “sleep bus” for the homeless. Soon, his idea got lots of support and he got enough money to buy a bus. Then he turned it into a place for homeless people to sleep. His sleep bus has 22 sleep pots, 2 toilets and even enough room for the homeless peoples pets.

俗話说得好:“金窝、银窝,不如自己的狗窝。”但不是每个人都是居有其屋的。事实上,世界上有许多人找不到每天晚上睡觉的好地方。澳大利亚人西蒙19岁时,他就是其中之一。那时他睡在他的车里。

现在作为一名成功的商人,西蒙不需要担心去哪里睡了。去年,当他看见一个流浪汉睡在一条繁忙的街道上,他感到难过,因为他没有忘记他的经历。他决定为无家可归的人做一些事情。

经过几个月的思索,他有一个主意了——就是为那些无家可归的人建立一个名为“睡眠巴士”的慈善项目。很快,他的想法得到了很多人的支持,他得到足够的钱去买一辆巴士。然后,他把它变成了供无家可归的人睡觉的地方。他的睡眠巴士有22个睡袋,2个厕所,甚至还给这些无家可归的人养的宠物留了足够的空间。
