@Julien Hi all!  I am a Texas Girl currently living in Valencia, Spain for three years.  I am ready to make a change and considering Brugge, Belgium, The Hague and Andorra.


I am afraid I might be too cold in all three places, but still interested.  I have never been to Brugge but will visit in September.

Hi

I have been living and teaching English in a private language school in Spa for over 30 years (residential courses given  to busines executives, politicians, young people...)

Really enjoy it and such a beautiful region.

@JulienHello, thank you for accepting me among you on this forum. Let me introduce myself, my name is Karim and currently I live in Tunisia.

My goal would be to find a position based in Belgium so I thought maybe I would find help on this forum. I applied on LinkedIn, indeed and on many other sites but nothing very positive so far.

thank you in advance for your help
