Welcome to the Forum.

I know it is easy enough to find an English teaching job. Other than that you might find something in an expat bar/resturuant/hotel but with very low pay. 

Phnom Penh should be a nice change from Vietnam.

If I were to work at a bar, I would probably become a hopeless alcoholic. Okay, maybe not an alcoholic. But, I danged sure would drink a LOT more than I do currently - which isn't much, these days. I had two Jack & Cokes with a buddy who dropped by the farm today. The farm, yeah. We are so far in the sticks, we have to get sunshine piped in here. :)

Yes, welcome to the forum. I would say teaching is more of a certainty. Many bars and restaurant's owned by expats have been recently bought out or been demolished. Ether way their are a lot of owners now without. I hope you have good luck, looking for what you need.

Definitely easier to get a job teaching.

I have just returned from my second trip to Danang where I am seriously considering moving there after a very long time living here in the Philippines which is sinking quickly under the population growth and all the other tragedies and problems !!

 

Very impressed with Danang and what it offers !! ....relatively easy to travel to Cambodia from there also ...

 

Where in Vietnam are you living ?? ....HCMC I guess  ....anyway welcome to the forum ....

You could try prostituting yourself, David. 

I haven't made much at it, thus far. But, I figure it is due to us being in rainy season.

Do they like having white babies there like I hear that they do in the Philippines?
