I've got a job, I'm getting an apartment

Now I’m just waiting on my visa! On August 26th I move to southern China to spend the next year teaching English.
How to move to a different continent
It made me 
"an innevitable part of my life, that for many a year was an underlying goal...escaping routine and the western way of working and living became key to my own happiness"
How I did it: How did i do it good question...some luck, some family support...but ultimately it came about because of how certain i was that i wanted to make the move into more of the unknown. I quickly realised that the bulk of my happiness comes from thriving on new experiences and forcing myself to challenge and engage myself. Having been lucky enough to travel a lot in my youth with my family, i realised how much is out there...and more importantly realised how little I would ever see of it living the life that so many in the UK live falling into a life of routine. Whilst that is a life that the majority have to live to get by day by day, It depressed me as I knew it wasnt what i wanted, and becasue I knew I could have so much more that life depressed me and drained me. But that was a blessing in disguise for me as those facts motivated me to make this happen,,,behind every decision and every encounter I had this underlying desire and without realising it I made opportunities for myself bit by bit to make this achievable. When down or alone I fount myself plotting plans, drawn from my desire for this...and in time this desire became faith. Something I knew in time would happen. And it did I stumbled into a job which over time and a few years hard work I managed to propose internally that I could outsource myself to work freelance, working remotely from anywhere, whilst still achieving the same results for my firm...making the decision even financially in their favour..win win for us both. Was one of the scariest things I have ever done effectively putting my job on the line explain the reasons why I needed to be in a different evnviriment and lifestyle. But in explaining that to my peers and directors in such an honest and probably in part emotional way...it made them think and wish they had done something similar in their youth...before they were tied down by morgages, family and other dependables...and so gave me the opportunity openly with blessings. And so thanks to all that I know have the ability to earn a good english wage working from anywhere in the work. Only needing a decent interenet connection and a laptop to get on with my work. So yes I consider myself lucky, but luck alone would have not got me this. Has stemmed from want, genuine desire, faith and hardwork
