who here's working abroad?

I've been working in China (TEFL) for almost 4 years now but i'm heading back to England next week as I've simply had enough. Don't get me wrong, China is a wonderful country, fucked up in more ways than one, but wonderful nontheless. If you want to work abroad I'd say just do it. Even if you hate it you certainly will not regret your experience, and it makes you appriciate what England has to offer.

I'm working in Poland as an English teacher for 12 to 15 year olds for 4 months. I don't actually start teaching for 2 weeks as it's winter break at the moment. I'm enjoying being in a different country so far.

I'm working in Buenos Aires. I had the original plan of coming over here bish bash bosh teaching english (I have a CELTA), but it's strange how things work out. It's summer over here, so teaching work is v. thin on the ground. I'm working for a rental agency that pitches to English language speakers, and my boss from England chucks me the odd bit of data entry to do sometimes, which is dull but appreciated, given that GBPs go a lot further over here then they do back home. I've been interviewing a lot recently and the prospects for getting TEFL job are looking up considerably now.
