From the NW of England, I served as a high school teacher for 22 years. I stopped doing that at age 55, then did some training as a teacher of English as a foreign language. I love Israel, and would like to live in Jerusalem for a year, at least. I offer business standard coaching in English, on a 1:1 basis. I'm stepping into unknown waters, heading for Jerusalem. My initial needs will be for simple accommodation (for one person) with internet access. I will be bringing only two suitcases with me. I would really appreciate some experienced ex-pat info on things like a working visa, places and scams to avoid, suggestions about my idea of offering business class English coaching, sensible health-care provision, registration with the authorities - and a dozen other things that I haven't mentioned here. Let's just take it one at question at once. To all respondents, thank you very much for your time and care. I appreciate it. Phil T

Sales and marketing for a custom cabinet design and manufacturing shop
Very pleasant indeed with ocean near by, gulf islands near by, pleasant and welcoming Canadian people.
It's expensive to live here - accommodation rentals, and cell phone especially.
Well established socially, with many family and friends, good Christian fellowship contacts, enjoy the open spaces with my children when they were young (now an empty nester)
Down to earth people, many of whom will help strangers in need.
The rainy season is a bit long!
