Internet technology means people do not need to travel to foreign countries to understand how others live. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Internet
and advancements in technology have changed the way how a person imagines a certain
place
and a
country
.
Therefore
, some claims that in order to learn about the living habits of a
country
one
just read the info on the computer and see the pictures of that
country
.
However
, I partially agree with
this
notion.
This
is true that the
internet
has removed the bars between countries and their people.Anyone can grab the knowledge about any site in the world ,
for example
, living habits, culture, food and geographical diversity. To illustrate, I am an immigrant in
Canada
,
therefore
before moving to
Canada
to collect all the information about the
place
where I was going to live, packed clothes according to the weather conditions of
Canada
.
Furthermore
, the
internet
also
gave data about the people of different nationalities who
also
live in
Canada
.
Hence
, by reading all the information,
one
can take a picture and imagination about that
place
.
On the other hand
, there is a big difference between imagination and reality. It is true
one
can think of that area by looking at pictures of different tourist places on the
internet
. But the reality is always different from that what we look in the pictures.
For example
, since I belong to India, India is a tropical
country
with normal weather conditions.
In contrast
to
Canada
which is near the north pole of the earth and has extreme climate conditions.
Although
I had knowledge about
this
weather kind of climate in
Canada
before moving to
Canada
, the feel of the climate is entirely different.
Therefore
,
one
can get the experience of a
place
only by visiting it. In conclusion, there is no doubt that we can learn about many countries and places through the
internet
but the real picture of that
place
can only be felt by visiting it.
