Snow In Las Vegas

I was just watching the news the other day. I can not believe that it snowed so much in las vegas. It’s amazing only in the amount of snow they got. Normally it snows at least once every couple of years and every year Las Vegas flirts with snow.

The positive thing about snow in Vegas is that it melts very quickly while giving the ski area at Mt Charleston a deep base of snow for winter skiing. And that’s just another great reason to visit Las Vegas.

Dreaming Of A Winter Wonderland

I think I might be a rare TEFLer. I know many TEFL teachers dream of heading abroad to teach English in a tropical climate. I know a significant number of Canadian teachers have set aside their tire chains in exchange for a teaching job in such exotic tropical locations as Thailand and Costa Rica.

I say that I am different because as I look to head abroad teaching again, I am looking for a cold climate. I want to experience the cold weather of winter time. I want to see tire chains on cars and trucks and I want to play with my kids in the snow. It’s not that easy to find this type of TEFL destination so I am heading to you, my loyal readers, for insight.

Can you give some feedback and help me find a cold weather TEFL destination?
