Teaching Abroad in Indonesia Overview:
Indonesia is the most expansive archipelago in the world, featuring wildlife that will bring you face-to-face with all those exotic animals you thought only existed on the Discovery Channel. The Indonesian people are proud of the creatures that reside in their homeland. Komodo dragons, orangutans, tigers and bearded pigs are easy to spot. But once you get past the scenic allure, there is a wealth of art, culture and heritage not to be missed. While these highly sought after animals are second nature to the locals, English teachers working in Indonesia are the source of much curiosity. Don't be surprised by how quickly you get folded into the good graces of the community. Tidak apa-apa (No problem).
