I had a friend doing assignments in Pakistan. He told me he made a lot but some of his colleagues were kidnapped before and never came back. :stuck_out_tongue:

Afghanistan Wondering what industry BishBosh is in, could be one of the following: 1. Journalist 2. Independent “security” consultant 3. Surgeon specialising in gunshot wounds 4. CEO of some liberal / tree hugging NGO 5. US Army

“none wants to come to india?” Indian girls are too conservative for the forum member’s liking. They want some easy action and Indian girls dont typically fool around before getting married. Though from a purely business/ professional stand point I would pick India over most of the other countries mentioned. So much potential for growth and minting money.

I visited Lima last year and I fell in love. I loved the food, the people, plus I want to perfect my spanish. But, I am not well connected. If I may, how did you land a job there? Thanks Pierovic18

I’m planning to move from Chicago, IL to Sydney, Australia. Good move or bad move?

Mattlikesanalysis, I worked in the telecommunications industry until the 01 bust. I had some special talents for international communications that positioned me in various counties. Then I made my way into senior management covering 10 countries. I did 15 years at this company with 13 of those years working internationally. Started a small business and worked on an MBA and a masters degree in finance after the dot.com bust. I received the degrees around 05 and 06. I now live in Australia at the ripe old age of 48. I wouldn’t change a thing as I really enjoy working with diversified cultures. The only difference at 48 is the fact that I can’t play as hard anymore. But I still play. Oldguy
