Path of the Vampire forum

I've been to Hong Kong, I have couple friends that have done the ESL route. But we have specific programs through our University that send new grads over to teach.

I don't have any personal information about the process though, so I will probably prove unhelpful.

I've been to Cambodia last year. Also been to Malaysia (which I always highly recommend), Singapore and Bali.

I only was for a week in Cambodia, and did just sightseeing, so can't say anything about diving or teaching English.

For hotels I can highly recommend the Billabong in Phnom Penh and the Golden Tempel Villa in Siem Reap.

Both are excellent places for a rather low price. For getting around from city to city in Cambodia I recommend Golden Ibis busses. There are other busses that offer cheaper rates, but are said to be less comfortable and reliable, and its only a couple of dollars difference in price.

For cultural stuff Angkor Wat is an absolute must when going to Cambodia. Absolutely amazing sight. If you come there during rain season it isn't even too crowded there. I was there in early June last year.

Hope that helps some, just ask if there are any more questions.

Was not in SE, but lived in Japan and South Korea for a while (military) and have a friend who lived in China as a teacher for years. A lot of schools want English speakers, but my friend said you have to bring your own curriculum and don't expect to get paid much. He found the job via a posting at his own university in the US so I'd look there for info. :). Hope you have fun, I've always wanted to see Angkor Wat!
