Does anyone here work for a company that is not in the United States... how did you set that up?
I am in a rut and want a change in my life.
I have been working as a Project Coordinator, but my real talents are writing and editing. After a brainstorm/daydream session I began to wonder if an international, maybe non-English speaking company would be able to use me.
If you want to change your life, change your life. If you move, all that you have changed is geography.
Sorry, I should have been more specific... I want to stay where I am, but telecommunicate somehow.
I'd like to manage my own hours, for once, and maybe I'll get the opportunity to travel.
yes, but changing geography (assuming it's a dramatic change, not just moving to the next town) will result in an incredible number of opportunities to change your life
yes but I am in another country...do you speak any other languages? do you a BA, MA?

I've got a BA in English with an MA on the way...
I speak a little Spanish but I am not fluent... I realize this is probably going to stop me from being able to work for a non-English company, but hey, it was a daydream/brainstorm.
I figure that maybe, just maybe a company with existing but poor English skills could use me to "brush up" and clarify their communications.
I work with a chick who lived in Japan for two years. All she did was speak english with Japanese businessmen. They wanted to be able to speak conversationally with someone, a few hours a week. She did that. Made good money. No qualifications other than being able to speakie Engrish. Check it out.
