People now have the freedom to work and live anywhere in the world due to the development of communication technology and transportation. What are the advantages and disadvantages of this trend?

In today’s society, living and working abroad has become more accessible and flexible.
Whereas
decades ago, there were a lot more geographical and technological restrictions. Communication technology and transportation have evolved so that people have the freedom to work and live anywhere they want.
This
essay will weigh the pros and cons of living and working overseas based on transportation and communication technology. When there are no restrictions to settle anywhere in the world, people can benefit from it. Access to tools
such
as the internet and modern transport devices can bring joy to someone’s life
elsewhere
.
For example
, having a smartphone with internet overseas will allow a person to apply for different job offers online
as well as
keep track of the nearest scooter station.
Nevertheless
, there are some
disadvantages
to settling somewhere else.
Such
as the lack of transportation for long-distance trips.
For instance
, booking a flight or bus to get back to your family can be expensive and sometimes not available when you want it to be. Communication technology can
also
be a disadvantage as the older generation has trouble using modern generation applications
such
as Uber, Google Maps and Go Translink,
besides
it gets harder to contact people from abroad
while
living and working overseas. In conclusion, to live and work anywhere else in the world comes with its advantages and
disadvantages
. Some will say the
disadvantages
are nothing and others won’t be able to make the move
due to
the fear of those
disadvantages
making their new beginning too hard.
