Last week we shared our experiences getting jobs teaching English in Japan, and how those jobs worked.
But what about Japan itself?
During the 2 years we were there we traveled throughout the country and picked up on a lot of basic etiquette and cheap travel tips!
In today’s podcast, we share some of our best tips on etiquette (both general and food-related), the cheapest ways to travel around the country, the huge range of accommodation options, and of course, our favorite foods!
We even go into some specifics regarding train and air travel in Japan (budget airlines!) that you’re probably going to want to check out as you start planning your trip!
It’s amazing that it’s taken us this long, but we’ve finally done it. Today’s podcast:
Teaching English in Japan!
A lot of the tips and stories we share here are probably also applicable to countries around the world, so if you’re interested in teaching English abroad, anywhere, have a listen!
We chat about the different programs that you can use to teach in Japan (some of which are international as well), the different methods that you can use to get a teaching position, and our experiences teaching.
There’s a ton of info here for those of you interested in teaching abroad! The best part is, a lot of times, all you need is a bachelor’s degree!
Do you have experience teaching English abroad? Let us know about your story in the comments below!
On Tuesday Bryan gave us the skinny on how he created CorkSharing, but today we’re going to talk about the business itself.
But before we get to the benifits of CorkSharing, both for the consumer, and for the wineries themselves, we listen to some AWESOME stories from GetMyBoat.com and some of the great things people have been able to do with the service.
We also chat about how to start a business by solving your own problems, the differences between self-discovery and researching (and why they’re both awesome) and ask Bryan to share some of his favorite destinations around the globe.
And what good episode wouldn’t end with a travel mishap?!
This is Part 2 of a 2 part interview. To listen to part one, where we discuss more details about creating your own business and GetMyBoat.com click here!
Today he joins us to talk about his two businesses, GetMyBoat.com & CorkSharing.com and how they cater to the access mindset.
In Part 1 we focus on GetMyBoat and chat about the sharing economy, what GetMyBoat is exactly and what it covers (they have watersport stuff too!), and what to know before you rent.
Another topic of interest is a lengthy discussion on the entrepreneurial spirit and how to find ideas for businesses.
Part 2 continues on Thursday where we discuss more about CorkSharing and Bryan’s favorite places around the globe!
