well my apt lease is up on nov 8th here in san antonio, tx. I know my time in texas is up and that I want to move badly. BUT I cant fig out where I want to move. I’m considering a lot of diff places but the part thats bothering me is if Ill get a job fast enough to stay and support myself. heres a list of diff places ive thought about:

1. Glasgow (born there half my fam is there [as far as a support structure] but job market is bad)

2. Rep. of Ireland (no fam but since its so close to uk has similar feel to it)

3. Japan (I have a very limited knowledge of Japanese but i think i should be ok with a jap-eng dictionary in tow[I took/passed elem. jap I in uni lol], I can teach english)

4. Australia/New Zealand (not too sure on the job market, again similar to uk [well au is, not sure of nz])

5. Polynesia/Micronesia (from what I can tell job market is very small, plus dunno about possible language barrier)

6. Any other suggestions????

most all of these places I’ve always been very intrested in. Ive only been to a few (UK and Ireland). Any insight, suggestions, stories about living/moving to/job markets in these places would help me decide. oh yea i have a BA in Philosophy if that helps (highly doubtful lol). Thanks for any and all help/insight!

Hey whats up. I'm Bo. I was born in Glasgow, Scotland then my family moved to Texas when I was 2. I've gone back to Glasgow almost every summer because my moms part of the family is over there. I still haven't been able to feel at home in either place...that led me here. I currently live in San Antonio, TX.
