Any suggestions?

Large city, university jobs perhaps, that are attainable with a BA and a CELTA plus experience; creative people; not cold or rainy for most of the year at least; good work/life balance; decent salary; at least one or two good; Jee-zus willing to keep a respectful distance from one's face; has good place(s) to get English language (non-teaching-related) books?

If it matters I can get around in Spanish and would like to work on that while down there if go down there.

Mexico City, if that experience is relevant. Bogota is a close second.

Hey - don't I know you? Laughing Relevant? How?

(Also, we've discussed this before but as long as some time has passed and you've brought up MC --- > safety?)

Scratching my head...my memory is going, sorry. Oh wait...now I know, FB friend.

Mexico City is fine for safety...pickpockets are about the worst you'd see.

I feel a heck of a lot safer here than I did living in Philadelphia, PA and about as safe as I did living in NYC. And the weather is usually great!

OK: ) Sounds great. Can I get a decent job from home or do I have to go there and look? How long/how much $ will it take me to get settled? Do I need a master's to teach in a uni?
