Can
you imagine exchanging the glamour of city life for
a quiet life in the countryside?
Many
people want to move from the country to the city
because they think that life in the city is more
exciting and better than in rural areas, especially
younger people who like new, modern things.
Often
people like to be fashionable and feel they can
find the latest styles only in the city.
Other
people are interested in technological things and
high tech jobs and think they can find them only in
a big city. If
they want to find a job, especially a good position
in a company, they feel they have to live in a
city. To enjoy these jobs, they are willing to put
up with many of the disadvantages of city life such
as crime, high traffic, and pollution.

However,
it is now possible to enjoy a higher quality of
life in the countryside and still enjoy some of the
advantages of living in the city.
Nowadays,
travel is fast and information is available on the
Internet, so many
people are able to do their work in home offices.
Because
they have e-mail and personal computers, they don't
have to be in big cities to conduct their
business. It
is not important where they actually work because
the results of their work can be sent everywhere
with technology. So, why should they put up with
all the disadvantages of the city any longer. Now
they can escape hectic city life to enjoy life in
the countryside and still be able to do good
business and successful careers.
