Hey guys,
I have to reiterate that I have no criminal record. There are no flight restrictions of any kind. Please leave flaming out of this in case someone else has a similar situation and wants to make a new life for themselves. If they find this post, they can find solace in the fact they can leave and those who live in Taiwan can find solace in the fact they won’t ever have to deal with them.
Side note:
I have a teaching license in English from the U.S. and the Foreign English Teacher program is always reeling for teachers as their pay for licensed teachers is pretty low. You could work at a cram school and make more while having less hours physically at work.
Once again, no criminal record from this. Just a fine. Stop using the wrong terminology for future readers.
*Can’t post anymore so I’ll respond here. No one has answered my question #3, I have the intent to pay back the fine but most are agreeing here that it’s just not worth it to come back.
