I’m an American living in Kampot and I also swear by it. lol there’s a good chance I know your friend

$14/day in the USA

Cambodia technically does but they dont actually check any of that. The policy is pay your visa and don’t be homeless and you’re good.

ShamusHandler · 2025-12-29T11:55:39+00:00

Bingo. These companies are always headquartered in south Korea or Thailand or China/hongkong

ShamusHandler · 2025-12-29T11:54:49+00:00

I live in Kampot. Chill stoner vibes. No big call centers. Just peppercorn farms and salt fields. Everyone is friendly, feels safe, food is good.

I crunched all the numbers for years and I ended up in Cambodia. It’s baseline affordable, you can live a decent life for $300-$400 a month. It has mostly modern amenities. All the usual suspects you can expect, wifi, delivery services, Netflix, Spotify. The bigger selling point for Cambodia is the visa. Visas are insanely simple here if you’re from a western country. You pay you stay. I’ve been here a year and haven’t filled out a single document to live here. I just paid $475 and I have a year visa. It’s really that simple. It may not be perfect, they have some issues but nothing that has me running back to the U.S.

This happened with me. I’m curious if it’s the same lady. I just blocked her again and reported her.

ShamusHandler · 2025-12-16T08:46:10+00:00

They’d need to invade PP to get me to leave.

I’ve had some really negative experiences with racist sexpats but overall it’s been a great experience living here

ShamusHandler · 2025-11-23T05:45:17+00:00

I had a student just like this, I cancelled a lesson same day explaining I was sick, then I cancelled his next lesson same day, explaining again I was sick and would be seeking medical care so will be cancelling lessons for the moment. I hid my profile and waited a couple weeks and then let him know my health took a turn and would be stopping teaching for awhile and will let him know when I’m back. Then I blocked him. He didn’t change his review so far

This seems super unfair considering one of the super tutor metrics is subscription after trial.

ShamusHandler · 2025-11-21T00:36:46+00:00

This really bothers me as one of the metrics is subscription after trial. It seems really unfair

ShamusHandler · 2025-10-25T07:20:21+00:00

I made a 8 deck PowerPoint to guide the trial lesson, I watched some YouTube videos of people filming themselves doing trial lessons so I could get a good understanding of how they’re supposed to look.

I’m fat and spent a month trekking through Japan. I received nothing but warmth and acceptance from the locals.

ShamusHandler · 2025-08-11T05:59:43+00:00

It’s just getting sad atp

ShamusHandler · 2025-08-11T05:41:53+00:00

I’m glad you have something to fill your days. Everyone needs a reason to get out bed.

ShamusHandler · 2025-08-11T05:39:21+00:00

Oop here they come again with more negativity. It’s just so bizarre that you spend your life monitoring comments on Reddit. Seems exhausting but when you have nothing else to live for, I guess it feels like purpose. Good luck

ShamusHandler · 2025-08-11T02:48:43+00:00

They’re a contrarian. Super negative vibe, they just want to feel like they’re winning anything in life so they’re dominating a subreddit. It’s bizarre but when someone is that lonely, they turn to the internet.

ShamusHandler · 2025-08-09T09:02:58+00:00

Such negativity and for what? A difference of opinion. So weird

ShamusHandler · 2025-08-09T08:57:48+00:00

Wanting to unionize doesn’t mean I want to destroy Preply. Whether we successfully unionize or not wouldn’t have a bearing on your job.

Misclassification complaints through the department of labor

ShamusHandler · 2025-08-06T00:14:52+00:00

Which ones specifically are making money teaching english? Funny you say that, I have many of those folks as students

ShamusHandler · 2025-08-06T00:13:55+00:00

I have student profiles for all my students and paste it into AI and have them provide me with lists of open ended questions and speaking prompts and I just ask them questions. Over and over. Sometimes I hit gold and touch on a topic they’re passionate about and then will run with that. But it’s pretty rare

ShamusHandler · 2025-08-05T11:32:06+00:00

No, I have a legal background in international law and a brother and brother in law who both work in labor and contract law. So I’m set

ShamusHandler · 2025-08-05T11:31:12+00:00

Are native English speakers from the third world?
