“Living in a foreign country cannot be better than living in your own”
Ans
Living abroad means for young people throwing themselves from the ledge. The fact of
the matter is that, we are accustomed to help and absorption from our parents and even
grandparents. During adolescent period our wish to be more independent increases. In that time,
our minds develop an idea about going abroad for a long time, without parents support. It will
depend on our point of view and encourage if the plan comes significantly or will be only a
plan. It seems that living in a foreign country can not be better than living in our own one.
Living in a foreign country offers a unique chance to broaden one's horizons and gain a
deeper understanding of different cultures. Exposure to diverse customs, languages, and
traditions fosters tolerance and open-mindedness. The experience of adapting to a new
environment also encourages personal growth, resilience, and the development of valuable life
skills, ultimately contributing to a more well-rounded and adaptable individual. Living in a
foreign country may strain relationships with family and friends, leading to a sense of alienation
and loneliness. Missing out on significant life events and cultural traditions can create emotional
challenges that diminish the overall quality of life.
Secondly, young people, usually girls, are strongly attached to their parents. Leaving
their home city may be the reason for pain and tears and even will make them change the
decision. If the young person is not prepared to leave home, there is no sense in forcing because,
in the end, the effect will be disastrous.
In addition to this, people are very used to their local customs and national holidays. In
a foreign country, there is always difficulty with celebrating them. Because of the local
authorities and the local law, our human rights may be limited, due to our immigrant status.
Advocates for living abroad emphasize the wealth of professional and educational
opportunities available. Many individuals relocate to foreign countries to advance their careers,
pursue international education, or gain exposure to diverse industries. The global perspective
gained from such experiences can lead to a more competitive skill set, enhanced cultural
intelligence, and a broader network, ultimately benefiting one's personal and professional
development. On the other hand, living abroad is a great opportunity to learn and improve
language. It is generally suggested that only every day contact with language is the best chance
to learn faster and more effectively. What is more, belief that during stay, you will meet lot of
new friends is a strong impulse to leave our home. It is a chance to know variety of cultures and
behaviors. This variety is helpful to create young characters and transform them to become an
adult person.
It must be said that by living in a foreign country we are more tolerant and able to live
with different people. But when we are fond of our country and do not need anything additional,
then stay here and enjoy our life.
