How to Travel Japan on a Teacher’s Budget - TEFL Blog
Lydia Pincott
Destinations Alumni Experiences
For being a fairly small country, Japan sure packs a punch for the endless amount of things to see, do, and eat! As teachers though, we aren't living that high roller, bullet train life, yet we usually have enough days off for a decent holiday. So how do you get out and see Japan, while still having a few yennies left over for fried chicken at Family Mart?
Use the Seishun 18 Kippu Transport Pass (and region-specific passes)
Make Use of Tourist Information Centers
Stay at hostels with kitchens - but be sure to check the facilities!
Be loyal - to bus service, booking website, etc.
Choose the lowest cost option on Google Maps for getting around.

Destinations
You've renewed your passport, packed durable walking shoes, and typed up a detailed itinerary directing your steps in Italy. Your Italian ducks may seem like they're in a row, but sometimes, a dream adventure to a foreign country can turn into a stress-filled series of mishaps, unless you take advantage of technology and the apps that will make your trip a dream come true. The first time I traveled to Italy, I could not wait to arrive and begin exploring the hidden histories that the winding cobblestone streets offer their visitors. Navigating a city like Florence, in which the streets are decorated with signs indicating streets that curve into twisty knots, like a bowl of al dente spaghetti, or listening to locals speak a language that is equally beautiful...

Pooh Bear once said: “You can’t stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.” After spending some time working in a marketing agency, I took our old friend Pooh’s advice and set out to see the world and embrace new cultures.
My name is Lydia Pincott and I’m a 20-something year old from Wellington, New Zealand, currently based in Japan and teaching English here, while indulging in far too many desserts, taking an embarrassing number of photos, and never failing to get excited when seeing a shiba inu out for a walk.

The 11 Most Useful Apps to Travel to Hong Kong - TEFL Blog

Destinations Alumni Experiences
After traveling to a few cities in Asia, I think Hong Kong should be on top of everyone's travel bucket list. The city offers lots of attractions like museums, restaurants, and bars on a 100+ floor of skyscrapers, shopping venues, and even beaches. Going around Hong Kong can sometimes be a struggle, especially during pick hours. So, knowing in advance where to go, what is the right bus to take, or what is the best restaurant to eat in, will make your holiday much more comfortable.
