hey Ran Kizama ... I'm new to the forum, never posted or know anyone here at IA.

Just came across your thread, and i completely understand your predicament about leaving this place (ATL, USA.. same thing). Basically I lived in Seoul most of my years, with some stints in Boston, MA, Columbia, SC and Fort Bragg, NC. I been here in ATL since '98 straight from SK to Tech, and honestly, I think about going back everyday ever since.

Just wanted to say that there are many possibilities for anyone with a drive and passion for other cultures and have a multi-cultural background. Most of my friends go back to SK after graduation to teach english because of the benefits of pay, living, and taxes (from my understanding, as an american citizen you get 2 years tax free or up to ~80k). So there are benefits to going overseas, not only to gain financial foothold in your life, but to experience something that you only can really only do when you have the opportunity while you are still young.

Here are some links to sites that cater to native English-speaking citizens (whether USA, UK, Australia, etc) to find jobs teaching english in asian countries.

The first link is specifically for S. Korea: www.worknplay.co.kr

This other link is for jobs posted for most of the far east (possibly Japan): www.eslcafe.com

Good luck with your ambitions, and hopefully you find what you are looking for in life.
