I graduated college in August and decided to move here to teach English. This is my first time living outside of the states. I will try to post here regularly with whats going on in my life. Don’t judge me when 90% of my posts are about me getting drunk off Thai Whiskey and beer.

Staying Put

I got a call yesterday from the school where I took my TEFL course.  They asked me if I would be willing to sign a contract to teach kindergartners.  Its only 10 hours a week, but it pays 300 baht an hour.  I have also lined up some work at another language school working 15+ hours a week.

If I had taken the job down south I would be working 45 hours a week making 30,000.  They way things are now in Chiang Mai I will be working around 25 hours and making 27,000.  I’m happy with that.

I had to call all of the schools in Bangkok and the one down south to tell them I have already found a job.  I am happy to be staying here in Chiang Mai with my fellow pervs and alcoholics.
