I'm looking for general visa info. Does anyone know about the on-line visa services? I'd like a 6-month visa in advance. Also in reality do I need a special visa to do some teaching while I'm there? How hard is it to find a decent paying teaching job if I'm there and have experience and a certificate? ]]> http://poorbuthappy.com/vietnam/post/online-travelguide-to-vietnam-by-lp-author/ http://poorbuthappy.com/vietnam/post/online-travelguide-to-vietnam-by-lp-author/ By Peter on Sep 21, 2008, 04:43.

Rober Reid writes for Lonely Planet, and has a detailed online travel guide for Vietnam here: http://www.reidontravel.com/home/ It's free, and includes the equivalent of 179 guidebook text pages and includes free PDF maps. Pretty cool. ]]> http://poorbuthappy.com/vietnam/post/latest-lp-on-vietnam-8510/ http://poorbuthappy.com/vietnam/post/latest-lp-on-vietnam-8510/ By Peter on Sep 20, 2008, 23:23.
