I am keen to travel and my head teacher has offered to give me all of the summer term off to explore (April - July as in August I plan to go to Yakutsk and travel up the Lena River). I studied History and Russian at university and adore Russian literature. I have visited Russia twice before (Moscow/St Petersburg and hopping on and off the trans-siberian railway from Ulan-Ude to Moscow). I am keen to return again. However, I need to find a way to cover my day-to-day costs, such as rent and food. Would any of you know of a school / organisation / individuals that would like to learn English? I have heard of setups where people live with a family or community and teach some English each day in return for a free bed and food. I have got lots of experience working with children aged 4-9 and also have a TEFL qualification. As well as Russian I have also studied French, German, Spanish and even Czech for a little while. If I take this holiday I would really want to learn Russian, meet interesting people, not spend all my savings and have an adventure. Any ideas? Scoopies

Unfortunately, at the moment I have not got a nice place (bed and food) which I can offer you. But probably something will change in the future. Best regards Nick.
