Journal 48: Your Opposition

     My persuasive argument is that not all people broaden their views or get benefits though they have experiences of studying abroad. Some people might get trouble because there are challenges that must be understood before taking the plunge. There are two reasons why of studying abroad is not only contains advantage. One of the big disadvantages of studying abroad is the costs and safety. You might not be familiar with the new environment and the new lifestyle, so it is easy to face trouble. Moreover, as you are far away from your family and friends, you might feel lonely or sad. Not all students’ families are able to pay the fee for their children to study abroad because it will cost a lot of money. For example, you have to rent a house in order to settle down first. The tuition must be expensive than the one you pay in your local country. At this time, you might question yourself: Can I afford to study abroad? In addition, you have less time to see your family or friends because the best way to communicate is by using Facebook, Skype, or other online chatting systems. Sometimes, you even can’t find anyone to help you when needed.
