Hi all,
Day by day I've been becoming more interested in living in Japan and starting a new life. Currently work as Subsea Engineer in the oil and gas industry and travel the world however I always have to return back the UK. I have no gripes with my job I would prefer to move to Japan to do it.
I always thought about teaching English because its an easy way to start and get used to the life. I'm currently a home owner but I have a excellent property which I can lease out and it can pay off the mortgage while I'm away.
Anyways as for my whole career I am only college diploma level (UK) and don't posses a BA Degree - I have 8 years in the Oil and Gas industry and one of my main requirements of my job is liaising between clients and my managers as I work on site to their requests. I am required to work in teams and by my own as required so I'm very business minded. (Worked with the Chinese Govt. O&G Firm for 2 years in Shenzhen so I know how difficult the cultural differences and communication is.
Right now I want to do a few holidays in Japan and soak myself in to see if I 1. will like it. 2. is it worth risking my established career for an exciting future?
Id love to hear your thought ladies and gents.
Any info would be appreciated
