I'm a sparky. But lived in NZ for a year and came here for 1 month on my way back to the UK. Many places i went to in Thailand had signs saying Teach English. So i thought i could do that. I was pissed off being a sparky.. Some people give English teachers shit. But so what? I enjoy it. I dont just teach English. I also run a couple of football teams at school.

At least we live here and are not sex tourists.

[Lung Ling]

What do I do? As little as possible, anything to avoid getting a real job. Seriously, I've been a writer for about 12 years--no Great American Novels unfortunately, mostly newsletters, business/finance/technology-related stuff, and serving as creator of propaganda for computer companies. All freelance/consultant basis of course, I find it most advantageous to be at least 1,000 miles away from the nearest client.
