A lot of people get bored with their jobs. They no longer find the job challenging or find the daily routine has become incredibly uninteresting, no matter how high-standard their jobs might be.
36-year-old Craig Markley, an outgoing guy who's been an English teacher in Seoul for about 3 years, was born and raised in the great city of Chicago, majored in journalism and worked in Los Angeles, California, at a public relations firm where he did hi-tech PR and Microsoft. Then, eventually, when he got bored with his other major job in banking where he worked for one of the largest Beverly Hills banks, he got clued into the opportunity of becoming a teacher in South Korea.
On his own YouTube channel (www.youtube.com/user/craigcmarkley), Craig shares his experience, interviews his Korean girlfriend and shows his goal of improving the lives of expats (especially teachers) who come to Korea to have a great time or even build a future here. This is especially true for newcomers!
Now, watch this casual interview with Craig at a coffee shop in Seoul where he talks about how he ended up here and shares a bit of how he interacts with Korean culture and people:

PS. How about you? How did you end up teaching English in Korea? What brought you here? If you are interested in sharing your experiences on this blog, send me an e-mail: agatha.maia1@gmail.com ;)
I hope to hear from you soon. Cheers and good luck in Korea!
