I'm upset, why I still can't get cheap tickets to Seoul. Are real-estate prices dropping like mad there? Oh and enjoy this : http://hongkong.coconuts.co/2015/06/11/hong-kong-exchange-students-removed-south-korean-university-lecture-wearing-face-masks quote:Two Hong Kong students on exchange at a university in Seoul told journalists that they were removed from a lecture for wearing surgical masks. And this is getting a bit out of hand in China http://shanghaiist.com/2015/06/12/south-koreans-shanghai-film-festival-mers.php

bobthedinosaur posted:I seriously considered that, but the credits I would need to be certified in my state would mean I'd have to take another two years or so of undergraduate level courses to qualify for K-12 certification. My undergraduate is not related to education. As someone who is not a teacher or based in Korea I would recommend you to be certified k12. Yes it takes more time but you can get a lot more"real international school" level jobs. The pay scale is pretty much standardized globally and is North of 65k a year living in developing countries with subsidized rent. A few goons I know either finished paying off their debt quickly or buying off Thai condo or mortgage payments back home. One opening portal to this job I know is Bangkok career fair or some professional international body where you register as part of that list. Forgot the name

JimBobDole posted:Two fairs in BKK: ISS Job fair and Search. Trend is going away from fairs though. We negotiate our contracts EARLY this year in September. So the hiring season is more from October to Dec. for experienced teachers. Korea is the only place in Asia I've heard of people getting hired without a teaching certificate. The International schools say differently but they hire plenty without a certificate (work with two in my hallway). I'm just going to quote this. Goons have tendency to sell themselves short. Don't sell yourself short.

It's East Asia so lots of options everywhere as long as you are qualified. The thing is, your not really 21 or 22 so finding jobs like that is kind of perplexing when you are more qualified.

Milan is anything but safe compared to the places you list. It's super sketchy as gently caress and a lot of pick pocketing and mugging. Or Roma/Africans scamming tourists. Even then that's mostly in the tourist city centre. Downtown Seoul has none of that. But when it comes to labor laws and enforcement of contracts I can't give you assurances

Hey Korean goons how are you all doing? I'm sitting in the food court eating lovely bibimbap and I miss Korea and having dinner with you all. It's my fault because I end up going to Japan all the time. Sorry Oh and I'm skipping the rice because i still remember that goonsgiving where this buff guy loves Korean food and skips the rice.

Peach Air's flight departs at midnight and gets in at 2:30am so no the best for a holiday. Or any day. The savings don't really make up for the lost time, lodging and late night transportation logistics. Unless you got some dollar value ticket

USA is actually a pretty good country to buy an unlocked iPhone Apple compass does a comparison of prices of Apple products across the world and America is great. So do purchase an apple and be done with it. Samsung actually have it’s local domestic market subsidize Samsung as an economic policy and pride. So you actually luck out from buying an unlocked samsung/lg phone in America as well. global supply chain is actually based on USA market pricing so Americans benefit from it greatly.
