One of my favourite parts of the job is something I never expected. Every time I walk into school or even just down the corridor, I have kids shouting “Teacher Millie!” and waving at me like I’m some kind of celebrity.

In the UK, I was so used to having lunch around 12 and then a big dinner at about 6pm. Here, everything runs much later. I actually start my lunch break at 1pm, and I’ll watch all the kids in the comedor sit down to what feels like a full three course meal in the middle of the day.

The visa process might look intimidating at first, but once you understand the steps, it becomes much easier.
