Hi everyone

I am a 25 year old South African who is relocating to Changhua County. I will be working at a Kindergarten as an ESL teacher and I am really excited!

I just wanted to see if anyone has any advice or tips for me? Also, is anyone here familiar with Sioushuei Township? I'm really nervous about this move! It is undoubtedly a step I need to take, and I would not have it any other way, but I am just scared that there won't be any expats living in this rural 'township'.

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Working in Kindergartens is illegal in Taiwan for foreigners, so just be careful. Be sure to know and ask where to hide if the police do a spot check.

Sioushuei is just outside the main city of Changhua. Changhua has a lot of stuff, but not Sioushuei. But it's only a 15 minute or so drive into the main city.
