The Internet provides us with information about life and cultures of different countries and some people say it is not necessary to visit these countries to learn about them. to what extent do you agree or disagree? give your opinion and relevant examples.

Within the digital era we live in today, acquiring

information

about other nations became easier than decades ago. The internet has shrunk the whole world and eased the process of getting knowledge, which drove me to argue that travelling abroad is unnecessary, whereas knowing about foreign cultures could be achieved by surfing different websites. In

this

essay, I will explain my idea, supporting it with salient examples. To commence with, choosing to travel

distantly

Suggestion

distances

distance

is usually exorbitantly expensive and takes a long

time

.

This

can be seen,

for example

, in the flying to Indonesia, in which the air ticket would cost around two thousand riyals per person

in addition

to the daily expenditure there;

moreover

, it is an eight-hour-flight from Saudi Arabia, where I reside.

Hence

, if attaining

information

about foreign countries via the internet is replaced by visiting them, it would be

waste

Suggestion

a waste

of money as well as space.

This

means that

such

means to acquire knowledge is not the right course of action, from my perspective. In stark contrast,

however

, it can hardly be denied that, nowadays, individuals could attain countless pieces of

information

about other countries freely in short

time

. Take,

for instance

, Mohamed Elsayed blogger, whom imparted a multitude of culture and life aspects about Indonesia within just hours through his free YouTube channel

.

Accept space

.

In fact,

this

unpaid and easy-to-access platforms are deemed as

irreplaceable chance

Suggestion

an irreplaceable chance

the irreplaceable chance

to save both money and

time

.

Therefore

, had it not been for these complementary web-based sites, which explore faraway places in details, illustrating

this

with photos and videos, high deal of money and

time

would have spent to reach

this

content. By way of conclusion, the advent of technology paved the way for its users to be abreast of an array of

information

pieces by merely clicking on search buttons.

Thus

, I

am wholeheartedly believe

Suggestion

wholeheartedly believe

that these effortless and affordable routes of getting knowledge about other cultures substituted, firmly, other traditional ways

such

as travelling.
