     Many student are annoying about their house because there are some opinions about housing. Some people think that living in an apartment is better than home stay because they are able to make free time and they are able to eat their favourite food. However, other think that home stay students is better than living in apartment students because they do not have to spend money about food or water. From my view point, living in an apartment is better than home stay for these thesis.

     The first and foremost advantage of living in an apartment is that students are able to make free time because they do not have time to go back to their house. For example, if they go outside to buy some foods at night, they are able to go outside whenever they want. If they home stay in their host family’s house, they are not able to go outside at night because their home stay family are monitoring them. Also, host family will not forgive them to go outside in night. Therefore, living in an apartment has an advantage to do something which they want to do.

     In addition, another advantage of the idea in question is that students living in an apartment are able to make their favourite food and eat favourite one. For example, if they miss Japanese food, they are able to make it by them selves. However, if home stay students ask their home host family, they are not able to make it because they do not know how to make it.Therefore, students living in apartment is better than home stay.

     In contrast, a disadvantage of the issue in question is that it is difficult for students living in an apartment to save money. For example, if they do not live in home stay, they need to make breakfast, lunch, and dinner because they live alone. Also, they sometimes need to buy convenience goods.Therefore, they may be stressed by wasting money everyday. As a result, home stay is better than living alone to save money.

     To sum up, I am an advocate of living in an apartment because, from my view point, the advantages far outweigh its a disadvantage. Moreover, I concede that living in an apartment is suitable for making their own time, but students in home stay is better about saving money.
