In response to stay home? (Julie)

Unless you can get a job in Europe, you should stay home. My salary has gone down by about 25% in only one year. Why? Currency fluctuations. In dollars, I'm making a LOT less these days. Also, regarding Thailand...I'd go to Ajarn dot com and research, research,research. Seems the regulations there have changed and one is rumoured to be 'required' to complete some sort of culture course that lasts nearly a year and costs nearly two thousand dollars, not counting rent, food, and opportunity costs. To that I'd say "No thanks." Besides, you can do a lot better than Toyland anyway. The weather's nice, but the pay really sucks, and the students don't want to learn the language. Some aren't even fluent in Thai, let alone know ten words in English.

Yeap, I'd stay home.
