Inspired by our story about Julia, we're also tracking the progress of Dave Montgomery as he prepared for life in Thailand as a teacher. Dave's situation is slightly different to Julia's. He's married to a Thai lady already and he intends to teach in the city of Udon Thani - up in the North East of Thailand. And his father-in-law is also a teacher!

Ajarn.com is documenting the story of one female teacher as she prepared to give up life in her homeland and head out to Thailand to teach English. Hopefully her journal will give inspiration and information to those about to embark on a similar journey. Let's begin at the beginning and let Julia introduce herself.
