My experiences teaching English abroad and doing as much travelling as I can. I'm orginally from Essex in the UK but I haven't lived there for a long time now and no longer really consider it home. I've taught before in China and also Liverpool, where I intend to return to once I've explored a bit more of the world. I am interested in meeting new people so if you are about in Seoul and wanna hang out don't be a stranger get in touch!

Working as an EFL Teacher in a new school located in Canada Water
Teaching English to Middle School students and generally travelling and experiencing as much as possible. Learning enough Mandarin to get by and have simple conversations.
Loved loved loved China, it's strange and alien ways, it's diverse countryside and cities. The people I met and the places I visited will stay with me forever.
Spitting in the street, using the pavement as a toilet, having 'HELLO' shouted at me everywhere I went, pushing, shoving and general lack of personal space, the derogatory use of Laowei to describe foreigners and the school I worked at.
University and job after returning from China.
Everything. the community, friendly people, culture, places to go things to experience, my job and the city in general.
My housemates.
Teaching English as a foreign language in a middle school. I travelled around China, to Korea and Malaysia and absolutely love it.
