If you would like to start writing and are a bit uncertain where to start: walk around your neighbourhood and write down everything you can remember about it.

Then go out again and look around you and see the things you've missed. Don't use too many adjectives, in other words don't get too flowery, plain words will do to start with. 

Alternatively, go into a room where you live and try to describe it for a pen friend, so that when she/he reads it will be accurately described.

Then return to your writing, and try to condense what you have already written.
