Here is a little information about finding a decent apartment in Korea before you leave home. Sometimes it is a gamble. Will I have a nice apartment or will it be below my expectations? There are a few things you can do before coming to Korea to make sure you have decent living conditions.

I really like you and Kansai PJ's videos. I lived in Yokohama for about 4 years, but my wife grew up in Kobe. We have been living in the States (Arizona) for a little over a year now since our return from Japan. My wife loves your videos because they are videos of her home town! She really gets excited to see so many familiar sites. Thank you for posting so many videos, as they mean so much to my wife and I. My wife, Naoko, and I will be in Kobe this March to visit family.

[BusanKevin]

well, than you very much. That is a very flattering comment! I'm glad you and your wife enjoy them so much. Expect to see a lot more Kobe in the future. Give me a shout when you visit in March. Maybe we can get together for a beer :)

Freaky Landlord. I hope that's not a Korean cultural thing; to snoop around your tenant's stuff.

[BusanKevin]

No. I don' t think it's a cultural think. The guy was just a creep!

If I could make a decent living at it....maybe I should change careers!!!! :)

This was SO helpful and very fun to watch. Thank you, Kevin! I'm actually and international teacher myself, traveling around the world each year to teach Literature and English as an Additional Language. Right now I'm in Ireland and this August, I am heading off to...South Korea! :) I'm following your blog and your twitter! Really glad to have found a resource with first-hand experience!

Well, i'm glad that ended well.

Is there anything else to do in japan other than teach english?

[SupaKirbTV]

OK, thanks a lot Kevin!

I think the systems for becoming a teacher are very different between the U.S. and Canada. I studied to be an elementary school teacher. I did a lot of work with the K-6 curriculum in the province of Ontario where I am certified. I think most people are never sure what grad they will teach until they are hired at their first job. Once you know what grade you have to teach, you will become very well versed in the appropriate curriculum.

I married her! She's now my wife (she's Japanese). :)

I saw the same show!

I heard rumours of it while I was there, but normally kept away from folks who were into drugs and the like.
