I’m curious about your stories. In my other thread about thinking of moving to Japan because of their population decline people suggested communist countries. I personally don’t consider it at the moment because, to my knowledge, they have a stable population growth so my housing issue wouldn’t be easier to resolve. Nevertheless, I’m eager to listen to your stories. :)

    I would be extremely wary about English jobs however, as the market has a tendency to be horrifically exploitative, degrading, and downright depressing.

    Plus being an English teacher still necessitates a near fluent level of knowledge of the language of the country where you will be working.

      Yea it isn’t generally a great industry as it is most often private sector work. Some enjoy it though.

      As for fluency it is very country dependent if you need to speak the local language. A decent amount of the roles don’t actually require it though obviously if you speak the language you will have opportunities for better roles.

      I was just mentioning it as one of the few non STEM opportunities that exsist.
