  hmm, tell your parents that their decision to prevent you from going overseas is limiting your education horizon. Tell them that this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. But if you need to pay for it...den I suggest you dont go and find better local company.

  Before you run out overseas , consider the factors - is it enough of you to survive in that period of time ? If not, are your parents willing to help you out ?
  
  You want a pleasant overseas experience to learn . You don't want to go there without financial backing and then finding yourself stuck or starving or worse homeless.
  
  Make sure your air tickets are return and sponsored by the company . Consider accomodation and living expenses- go google and find out how much it costs. Remember capital cities are very expensive even in developing nations in terms of housing.
  
  If it is Australia /Canada/Europe/USA - 700 dollars is not enough to survive if it is also for housing. If it is china - it better not be beijing - it's getting expensive there.
