Mongolia conjures up images of Genghis Khan and vast steppes. This fascinating country still has this special “pioneer” feel to it: as if the people are ready to up and lift at a moment’s notice, which is actually true in many cases. There are regular TEFL job ads, paid and voluntary, which appear throughout the year, usually based in the capital Ulan Bator. Mongolia doesn’t have the oil and gas reserves of neighbouring countries such as Kazakhstan, but the paid jobs usually offer a reasonable local salary which will allow you to explore the diverse country.

Many TEFL teachers choose to extend their adventures by taking an alternative route home after they finish a contract. If you are working in the Far East, you could consider taking the Trans-Siberian Railway for part of your journey. There are three primary routes, one which runs through Russia the whole way from Vladivostok to Moscow, and the other two which start in Beijing and run north directly into Russia or via Mongolia. If you didn’t get off the train at all, the trip would take around six days. Here a British teacher, Dave, describes the highlights of the journey he made in 2002 which took him from Beijing to Moscow with stops in Mongolia and Siberia.
To fly or to take the train, that was the question
