Part 3 Follow Up Questions

1. What kinds of jobs are easy to get in a foreign country?
   My cousin who lives in Canada tells me that there are many jobs that are easy to get for students
   studying there. The most common ones are the jobs in restaurants or fast food outlets like
   McDonald’s, Burger King, Subway, and those in the college campus itself, like jobs in the library, etc.
2. Should young adults work abroad?
   Yes, young adults should work abroad because of several reasons like, taking care of their overhead
   expenses, taking the financial burden off their parents’ shoulders, they become more independent
   and responsible and they gain experience about the work culture, which would help them in their
   future. It is also a good way to learn about the culture of that country and to meet new people and
   make friends.
3. If they don’t work abroad, would it be helpful for them to travel in a foreign country?
   Yes, travelling is definitely helpful. They would come to know about the culture, meet new people,
   see new places, and make new connections. However, if they don’t work, they may not be able to
   afford travelling.
4. Do Indian parents encourage their children to work abroad?
   Yes, Indian parents encourage their children to work abroad. They prepare their children well
   before they travel abroad, about the situations and hardships they may have to face and the
   importance of working while studying there, so that they can cover their expenses and also gain
   work experience.
5. If you had an opportunity to live abroad, which country would you like to settle down in?
   If I have an opportunity to live abroad, I would like to settle in a developed country, like Canada,
   Australia, the USA, etc. I have heard form my friends and relatives living abroad that life there is
   very comfortable, with better facilities and infrastructure. They also tell me that the standard living
   is very high there, as compared to India. Also, there are a lot of job opportunities available there.
6. Would you like to live in a developed city with a high salary but with polluted air?
   If I am in dire need of money for my family, I would go for it, but otherwise I would avoid it. I would
   use a face mask to filter the polluted air. I would also avoid taking my family there with me.
7. Would you like to live alone or share a room with others?
   This would also depend on my financial condition. If sharing a room would save me money, I would
   share, otherwise, living alone would give me more privacy and independence.
8. What are the advantages and disadvantages of living alone?
   Disadvantages are that it would be costly and I would have to do all my household chores myself,
   but the advantages are that I would have more privacy and I can live according to my wish.
9. Do people prefer planned travel?
   Yes, there are too many options to choose from nowadays. That’s why it has become really
   important for people to plan their travel. Planning also reduces costs as last minute reservations or
   booking are really expensive.
10. Why are places with historical attractions more active in developing tourism?
    I think historical places hold a unique charm for people. People often want to visit places they have
    read in history books, up close. Moreover, historical places are unique in the sense that we can find
    places with natural beauty anywhere for example hill stations, beaches but historical sites are
    particular to that location.
11. Why do you think people usually travel?
    People travel to get a break from the monotony of life. They travel to meet new people, to
    experience a new culture. People also travel to spend some quality time with their loved ones as it
    is very difficult to find time during daily life nowadays.
12. Why do you experience more noise when living in a tourist city?
    I think the major reason is increased traffic due to tourists. Moreover, there are entertainment
    centres like shopping malls, club, movie theatres and amusement park, which add to the level of
    noise.
13. Do you think tourists can experience bad things in other countries?
    Certainly, firstly, there are many scams that target tourists especially for example exorbitant
    transportation charges. As tourists don’t know much about the area, they are more likely to
    become a victim to such scams. Moreover, tourists may also experience racism sometimes.
