Italy

Usually when you get off a flight, having to mess around with timetables and connections on the trains can be really tiring, well at least it is for me. I find it so much easier to just pack my bags in a rent-a-car and off you go.

But as far as immersing yourself in the language goes I think I spoke more Italian trying to find my way around on the trains today than I did Portuguese in the whole time I was over there!

Oh and if you do have to work in Europe, plan it for off season, this is the view I woke up to this morning and it works out cheaper being here than the UK or Japan!

Hello, I'm Richard Graham. When I was a kid I found school to be sooooo boring... So I transformed my way of teaching. I listened to what the kids were really wanting to say and taught it in ways they really wanted to learn. The results were magical. Now I help teachers just like you teach amazing lessons and double your incomes!
