I have followed you, originally on going to Greece……I think been over 15 years–love the word Nomad–Thanks for this info maybe my dream hasn’t died yet—-getting to Europe and maybe staying.

THIS list was exactly what I was looking for!!

THANK YOU

Any hope for Bosnia ????

Will take a re-read of your picks and lean towards the most relaxed and friendly environments. Thank you again for the great starter info that seems current. Best, Robert

I’m American (can easily speak non regional diction) and my boyfriend is British (classic London). We are hoping to get jobs in Korea, but I’ve heard they prefer American.

I’m a veteran elementary school teacher and am burning out in our public school system here in Texas. I am looking to go overseas to see if I could follow my passion (teaching!) and get well compensated for it….or at least have the adventure of a lifetime.?

I am looking for somewhere south to teach again. I am 49, female, and speak rudimentary Spanish. Your best suggestions please? I want to flee Charleston as everyone is flocking here and cannot afford a living. I have a 10 year old son so I may have to leave him for a while with his dad to make some money but seeking long-term lifestyle southward. Thanks!
