Alas, U.S. citizens only. Sorry Sasha.
Indonesia, Turkey, and China are the top three countries regarding most ELFs in country at the same time. Ole Mother Russia also gets quite a few.
I thought that I should re-apply to the Fellowship and try to get one for Russia--that would be grand actually--fall out of love with East Asia and fall in love with ole Mother Russia.
Sounds all right to me.
Warm regards,

No. no, no, Fat_Chris. There must be a way! All I need to do is apply the same gumption and can-do attitude that non-EU citizens do when trying to circumvent immigration laws in order secure full-time TEFL employment in western Europe.
There must be a way! Because I am special!!! |

He-he. If you believe his latest post here, he's got the right attitude to fit in as a 'merican.  |

Dear respected Fat_Chris
Do you think the visa authorities in the decadent States would be cool with my firm Communist commitment to overthrowing their corrupt regime one EFL classroom at a time?

Highly Esteemed Comrade Sasha,
I dunno. It seems the 'mericuns have a highly sensitive allergy against the S-word. They think America is becoming more and more S----list by the minute. Little do they know, those chowderheads…
Just don't mention the S-word and you should be all right. Then you can quietly slip through and continue the revolution under the nose of Lady Liberty.
Senator Joseph McCarthy is rolling in his grave right about now.
Warm regards,
