boyah help direct my life pls 

[snoorkel]

Those all sound great but I'd go to asia or mexico over spain personally

what are you applying for? (english teacher?)

[don't let's]

China

[ME##]

spain is a nice vacation spot, but to work?  it just seems weird and do they even hire many young foreigners considering their native population's predicament?


japan and south korea seem to be cushy if you're an english teacher.  as long as you're not at a hagwon in the latter

[??????]

Asians and Mexicans love cute white people teaching them Englush! Don't go to Spain lol

[The Hand That Fisted Everyone]

Go 2 brazil

[Socks]

I know this chick that is going to northern Thailand to teach English. She is getting like 900 bones a month. That's like 30k useless bhat. Awesome experience though.

Thailand seems scary, Loas is probably safer if you're set on Southeast Asia

[strongbad]

Go 2 brazil

i've heard multiple testimonials that brazil is one of the worst places to teach right now. apparently it is common practice for you to have to sue your school in order to get paid lol

thailand is supposed to be great for english teaching, though. very established private school chains and it sounds like it is pretty safe regardless of political turmoil.. maybe

brazil is shit for everything

they can barely speak or read portuguese as is, let alone english

[strongbad]

yeah basically
apparently the country is a bureaucratic mess too and doing anything from getting a work visa to renting a place is needlessly complicated
just had an interview for a school in oaxaca mexico and it sounds very appealing actually
