Should I teach in China again?

I want to teach again next year, but where? 

    1. There's more to the world

    I have the opportunity to go anywhere. Why would I go back to somewhere I've already been?

    On the other hand I know what I'm getting myself into with China. It's a huge country. Maybe a different city would be enough of a change. 

    2. I know the language

    Not great, but well enough to get by.

    Another country means learning a new language. It'll be hard work, but maybe that's also a good thing. How much will a new language benifit me? 

    3. Money

    Chinas paying a lot for teachers. I don't think I'll find a higher paying country. It's really cheep to live there so I could save a lot in a short time. Taking money out of China is a bit of a hassle though, there's only so much I can save /take out. 

    4. Covid

    That was insane. Its it really over in China? Do I want to put myself in that position before the next pandemic? 

    5. Friends

    It would be great to see old friends again. I'll make new friends wherever I go, so that's not a factor. 

    6. Peace

    I don't need to deal with people if I don't understand them. My mind was a lot calmer in China, but I think I'll return to that calm wherever I go. 

    7. New phone

    Phones are really cheep out there. I could update my current one after a month of working.
