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!
Today Heather and I return to finish off our list of the 20 most beautiful buildings in the world (that we’ve seen, of course).
We return to some of our mentions in Part 1 as they make the list a second time and devote more time to discussing the beauty of each of these amazing locations.
There’s no end to the wanderlust inspired by today’s episode (even for us!) so be sure to listen to start dreaming of all the beautiful locations you’ll be visiting soon!
People have lots of reasons that they travel, but for us what makes traveling awesome are the people.
Getting a chance to hang out with the locals usually leads to some of the best moments of our trips. For that reason, we recorded the 16 ways to meet locals over on Jason’s podcast Zero to Travel.
As a sister podcast to that episode, we thought we’d share our favorite moments where spending time with the locals filled our tummies and our hearts, with joy.
How do you meet the locals when you travel? What stories do you have to share?
