There are many things we do for the people we love. Some show their love with kind words, and others with gifts. One man, 72 - year - old Vojin Kusic, built a rotating (旋转的) house for his beloved wife.
Kusic and his family live in an amazing house, and what makes it more amazing is that Kusic designed and built it all by himself. He used electric motors (电动机) and the wheels (轮子) from an old car. The house can rotate a full circle in just 22 seconds at its fastest speed, and complete the turn in 24 hours at its slowest.
Kusic made the decision because his wife wanted to see the front yard from the living room. It took a lot of hard work to build the house and even more to make it rotate, but Kusic was happy to do it because it meant a lot to his wife.
This is not the first time the man has built something special for his family. Years ago, his wife wanted their bedroom to face the sun. As a result, their living room had to face away from the road. Then his wife felt sad because she couldn't see guests walking up to their home. So Kusic decided to do something different.
Kusic's wife is now very happy, and so is Kusic. He joked, “Now, our front door also rotates, so if she finds unwanted guests coming, she can rotate the house and make them turn away.”
