[LoneSage]

Tangshan, to be exact.

Thanks to Maury for making that thread and getting me started, that was great motivation.

You'll be treated like a prince.

The yuppie couple's kids next door to my parents live in China - they live like Kings.

 

[TurboCro]

Congrats!

 

[Phyeir]

Dang, quite the move. Congrats man!

 

[Kiel]

One of my bros teaches in Shanghai, you'd probably get along great with him

 

[Wachenroder]

Awesome news man! What kind of job is it?

 

[Poonman]

Awesome news man! What kind of job is it?

Teaching kids......






















....how to skin dogs as inhumanely as possible...

hahaha j/k




Srsly though, Congrats: glad to hear some good news out of you...that other crap about the hobo moving in depressed the shit out of me.

China should be pretty awesome and although there probably aren't enough to go around, my buddy tells me the women are much better than the crap he usually drags home in Toronto.

 

[Spike Spiegel]

Congrats. Whatever you do, don't run over a 2 year old girl in the street.

 

[OrochiEddie]

Sage in China...I imagine I'll be reading about you on the BBC in a few months time

You bastard! I just got over the horror of that video! Now I have to drive to Rite Aid for some Jack Daniels and sleeping pills.

Anyways, I had a friend that moved to China to teach English. I don't know what your teaching but he made it sound like an incredible experience. Good luck brother...and yeah don't run over two year olds T_T

 

[Arcademan]

Congrats on the job and the move

Wow, 'sage, had no idea you had applied --you're going to have, at the very least, a very mind-opening experience. Life in China is different, but I think you're going to enjoy this.

[Kiel: he's far from Shanghai, closer to Beijing]

 

[SonGohan]

Can I be the bum in your basement there?

 

[Kid Panda]

hit up a 3 story KFC while you're there sage

Expat living!

I was offered a permanent full-time job in both Qatar and Kuwait, but the wife just wasn't on board.

Do some traveling while you are over there. I don't know about East Asia, but from the Middle East you could fly nearly anywhere in Europe and Central Asia for cheap.

My round-trip ticket from Kuwait City to Dubai was $110.

 

[Normdog]

Congrats Sage! I'm sure you'll learn alot from this kind of experience.

lol going from Lynchburg VA to China, that's going to be a hell of a culture shock.

lol going from Lynchburg VA to China, that's going to be a hell of a culture shock.

yes i agree, myself being from a small town an hour away from lynchburg, va then going to japan was like a violent difference in how they handled themselves and others
