Saving Lots - Living on the Cheap

E-mail

I'd have to say that the money issue was much of the motivation for teaching ESL abroad, and the best place to do so at the current time is Korea. Korea offers the best packages, highest salary, not to mention that it is a great place to spend a year or two. The cost of living is not much - since I am trying to put away some money I could live off of 500,000 Won every month. But since I'm a cheapskate, I'd say a normal person could live off 6 to 700,000 Won and live pretty darn well. It may be against the forces of nature for a newly graduated person to afford membership in the most exclusive gym in town, but I'm not complaining.

Marie Bourgeois “I just wanted to say thank you all for your help with the application procedure for teaching in Korea! You helped make it go very smoothly! I've heard stories from teachers who've had a difficult time with it but I must say, I've had a great experience with Footprints and I recommend you to anyone looking to teach in Korea. Nice quick, straight-forward approach to providing information. Friendly staff too! :) Thanks again! By the way, did I mention I love Korea?! :) ”
