This blog is designed to keep our friends and family informed about what is going on in our lives during our stay in England. Seeing as telephone calls overseas are anything but cheap, this blog will hopefully make keeping in touch much easier. Now, about this England thing...
On August 26th, Kelly and I leave for England. We fly from Toronto to London Gatwick, and I believe the flight is about 7 hours in total. In terms of our accomodations, our plan is to stay with our agency (TimePlan) temporarily until we find our own apartment somewhere nearby -- a two-bedroom apartment, preferably furnished, is what we all have in mind. Quick searches have given us an idea of the places available and the approximate rent, so hopefully we can lock down a place soon after arriving.
We've both decided to teach overseas during our first year as certified teachers in the Essex area of England, which is a short distance outside of London. We plan on doing a fair bit of travelling while we stay in England, and some places that we've identified already are Ireland, Scotland, France, and Italy. Hopefully we'll get to see many more places and interesting things during our international teaching experience.
So, add this blog to your favourites, and keep checking back regularly to stay in touch with us.
