End of week 2: The silence of the plans

The end of week 2  in Valencia. Been great so far: soaked up some culture, some sun and I teach English from time to time :P. The students have finally warmed to me now, thanks in part to how my teaching style differs from their usual teachers and I’m feeling more a part of the school than I did after my first week.
Still 2 weeks left, but already my minds on the next adventure.
I’ve had 2 interviews in the last week over the internet with schools in China. The first (in Shanghai) has already offered me a position and the second (in Beijing) has requested a videoed 20min demo lesson to base their judgement on. Both schools look great and I’d be happy with either but (as someone who knows practically nothing about Chinese cities or culture and is primarily talking out of his arse) I’d definitely prefer to be in Beijing. In all likelihood it will take 1 - 2 months to get all the paperwork sorted so I could be flying out as soon as late March. 
All of a sudden life seems to be picking up some momentum.
