Estonia: Tallin University:

Hi, I'm applying for a masters at Tallin University and I was wondering if anyone has gone there and if they have more information about the process.

Germany: How to find a job in Germany:

Hey everyone! I actually came back about four months ago from being an Au Pair in Germany. I was there for a whole year and it was one of the best experiences I ever had. I would love to go back and continue to learn the language. I was thinking about doing my Masters in Int Relations but unfortunately I do not have 7,500 euros in my bank account. So my other options would be to teach English but I am not a native English speaker. I came to the US when I was 11 and do have my American citizenship. But I'm not sure what kind of jobs I can get with my experience or where to look for jobs that do not require a native speaker. I am also fluent in SPanish. If anyone has any suggestions, I would really appreciate it!

United States: Living and working in Boston:

Hey Katarina, I guess I don't really qualified as an expat as I moved here with my parents about 12 years ago and I'm now an American Citizen. But I would say that there is always a chance of finding a job. I live near Boston and I went to college here and it's definitely a tough market and an even tougher economy. If you are already in the US it will be a bit easier to find jobs as you are able to find contacts. I would say that your best bet is to try to find work at a hotel by going to the hotels yourself armed with your resume. I'm not sure what your current legal status condition is but if you are not legal you may have a really tough time finding employment. You can also try to find volunteer positions in the tourism industry while you get your paperwork. Best of luck
