I always feel like the hands-free bidet is sneaking up on me, I prefer the control and manual aim/pressure of the gun.
nope.
some countries and schools require a TEFL certificate or prefer candidates with an associate's degree depending on the position, but if you want to teach English, all you need is to be a fluent English speaker.
The cost of living in most countries is around $500 USD a month for transportation, rent, utilities and food altogether; teaching English pays $2000 USD a month with zero qualifications or experience.
every month I taught English, I had a few extra months of my cost of living.
I taught English for about 7 years.
as long as you're making more than 500 USD a month remotely in any job, you can travel long-term.
Depends on what you're looking for.
For backpacking, Japan. For natural history museums, Ireland. For food, China. For cost of living, Cambodia or India.
lol I'm stealing 'bum gun'. Just installed one last week and can't believe what I've missed out on my entire life.
you're welcome to it.
I've been calling them toilet guns for years, and then someone on the internet said bum gun, and it's too good not to use.
"...can't believe what I've missed out on my entire life."
exactly how I felt when I first used a bidet.
like "why did everyone teach me to use my hand and paper for this rather than a hygienic, elegant solution?"
Sounds a bit like the Finnish nickname pillupuhelin (pussy phone)
that's a finnish nickname for a bidet?
Bidet shower, so the bum gun
Yup, upvoted for "bum gun"
I've heard bum gun from Thai folks but I'm guessing some Australian came up with that? Sounds like something they would say. I don't even know what the Thai word is or the literal translation.
I've been there a dozen times and also have no idea what the Thai word is, so here:
"In the Thai language, a bum gun is referred to as: săai chèet cham-rá (สายฉีดชำระ), hŭa-chèet (หัวฉีด), or thêe chèet dtòot (ที่ฉีดตูด)"
hm. sounds like they don't know either.
I found this language learning site that more sounds like they know what they're talking about:
"Bum Gun ที่ฉีดก้น Têe Chèet Gôn"
