A possible version
Working in the country, a better choice In my opinion, working in the country is a better choice. First, you don't need to say farewell to your families and friends because you just live and work with them. You can get your agribusinesses up with their help, along with the government’s financial help. As a result, you can fulfill your own goals while improving the quality of life for other people in your hometown better. In addition, living in the countryside is very lower compared to big cities. You don’t have to spend money on the rent, which can save you a large sum. Fresh fruit and vegetables are always cheaper than those of the city. Lastly, working in the country helps you keep a close connection with nature from which you can attain more than you have expected. Of course there are also disadvantages to working in the country. For example, poor transportation and net service sometimes bring us inconvenience. But as every coin has its two sides, walking or riding a bike is both a means of transportation and doing sports. Reading or talking with your families and friends can amuse you a lot when the Internet is not available. It’s a fact that villages don't usually have cinemas, libraries, museums or stadiums but whenever you are free, you can go to the town to enjoy these interest leisure facilities. all in all, I would prefer to work in the country.
