TEFL: teach abroad

There were loads of opportunities to teach eanglish when I was backpacking Southeast Asia. If you are interested, Groupon have had a couple of offers on TEFL courses recently.

Unforunately that one has sold out, but I would expect more to be posted in the near future. If you are interested, it may be worth signing up?

Found some more photos of overloaded vehicles on th ol' Interweb.

It is funny when you see this going on when backpacking Southeast Asia, to think you would probably get pulled over and fined in the UK!
