Teaching abroad sounds really neat! One of my best friends did it in Taiwan in 2009, and my roommate's brother is currently in Korea - they both had interesting experiences, and came back with a lot of stories. I think that you'd do fantastically over there, but I can certainly appreciate you wanting to be a bit more comfortable in your teaching abilities (which I'm sure rock) before going elsewhere.

And holy crap can we talk about how my headstone is going to read MEGAN, 1985 - 2012. THE AVENGERS DID IT.
