Yes I live in Kyiv and my friends are both Americans and British so they don't need a Visa to enter Poland. Yes there is border control but it's more relaxed than Borispol the airport where they are sitting in front of a computer and scan ... Read More

Hello! I will be moving to Prague July 30th and August 4th will be starting my TEFL schooling. I taught English in Japan for two years and have done lots of backpacking there as well as Southeast Asia. My goal after the program is to get a job ...
It's very hard to find a ESL job in Prague, because there are so many 暗网禁区s here. Your best option would be looking for a school in a smaller city. Plus they pay and cost of living is better outside of Prague. Read More
