Write a letter to your friend who lives in a different country about your plan to work overseas. In your letter explain G3aOj

Dear John, How are you? How are Melody and Emily? I hope everything is going well. I wanted to write you about some plans I have and I was hoping you could help. Ever since I visited you last fall, I cannot stop thinking about how much I love Greece and how I would like to spend some more time there. So, I have decided to move there for a year! As you know, I have a degree in English so, I thought I could teach English as a foreign language. This experience will be great for my career since international experience is a highly sought qualification. If that is not possible, perhaps I could work for a family as a nanny. You know I love to work with kids so I would be happy in that kind of setting too. Could you give me some information about how easy it would be for me to get a job there? Also, what are salaries like there in both professions? Would the money be able to cover housing and living expenses? I have read that nannies have irregular hours, sometimes even 7 days a week, but what about teachers? Do they have day or evening hours? I am hoping to make the move this coming fall so any insights you could give me would be great. I am really excited about this and can’t wait to be closer to you and your family! Talk soon! Love, Anna
