The Brew Dog pub? Never actually been there yet!
And underground.. Karova Klub? Does it resemble a cave?

What are you going to be doing over there?
What are you going to be doing over there?
Initially teaching, but hopefully not forever. I did have a job offer to do some in house proof reading and translation work with Sony Ericsson (Sadly, a lot of places are trying to get rid of Chinglish from instruction manuals), but I had to defer my finals, so the position went. Got that just by meeting people over there last time, so while teaching will be my in, I'll see what I can find once I'm back over there
Half tempted to go back to the city I was in before for the contacts, but I'd like to head to somewhere bigger really - spent a lot of time in Beijing and Shanghai, but never had my own flat there, so that'd be a different experience.Then again, I've had people attempting to sway me towards Taiwan recently. Could be fun too.
