Hello, sorry but I had thought I had posted my travels about England already but my phone didn't post properly I guess. Grrr but oh well. I will post photos and that will tell you about my wonderful trip to England and how I didn't really want to come back to Paris.
I didn't have any prospects in Paris and while in England with my friends it was becoming more and more apparent how unhappy I was in Paris. I didn't book my ticket back to Paris until the night before and so I didn't get a great deal. It's hard living in a place where you don't have a purpose at all.
I met a friend in Paris, from Church, who kept telling me about Berlin and how cheap it is and the visa situation is a lot easier to get. I would listen but wasn't really into it but when I got back to Paris, my friend and I created a google doc of all the languages schools in the german cities where we could possibly want to live and then I applied. I sent out over 40 CV's on Thursday and had about 4 job offers on Friday. They were for Freelance teaching but when I looked into it further, it turns out that I can apply for a Freelance teaching Visa. I would have to find a place to live, get health insurance and have a letter of intent from the employer. Well, yesterday, I received a phone call from one of the prospective companies and they want me to start on Oct. 31st teaching Banking English to some students in Banking companies. It'll be 19 Euros/hour and they'll give me the material and other things. I just kind of tuned out for a bit on the call because I was a little excited. The job is in Berlin and of course, i said Yes!!!
I am really happy because I really need to work. So, hopefully I can be in Berlin by the 24th and get some things arranged as soon as possible.
This is all for now but I'll post again soon.
