Robert's School of Languages is always looking for experienced foreign teachers. Contact robnorf@yahoo.co.uk for more details

	Posted: Saturday, 9th August 2008 Posted in: Forums > Travel Sichuan > Trips to Tibet (Lhasa - Nepal if possible)
I was told this morning (9.8.08) that independent trips (even with visas) have now been banned again and only official tours can enter Tibet. [Extremely frustrating for me as I have a flight ticket/visa arranged and paid for]. Mr Chen's Tours (3188114) at Camellia Hotel is trying to arrange a short notice tour (leaving 13.8.08) should anyone want to look into joining it.

I got an Indian visa in Chiang Mai. Takes 5 working days (though possibly less if you cross their palms with silver!) and lasts for 6 months.

	Posted: Monday, 21st July 2008 Posted in: Forums > Living in Chengdu > English teaching: Is it viable in Kunming?
Robert's School of Languages is the largest private language school in Kunming, run by an English guy with over 3000 students from 6 - 60! Always on the lookout for foreign teachers (esp with quals and exp). I'm one of 10 foreigner working there at the moment (plus 30 Chinese teachers) and it's a fun, supportive, professional atmosphere. Worth a look (contact rslchina@yahoo.co.uk). HOWEVER, I believe a recent PSB rule change means you can't get proper work visa without first returning to your home country to apply. So just turning up and looking for (legit) work is no longer such a good idea. Maybe others can confirm this?
