Hi, I am traveling to Abu Dhabi for a few days and am looking for some advice on things to do/see during my visit. Unfortunately, I am limited to only a couple free days as I am going for a job interview.

I am now looking to teach in Taiwan, as I understand the system is different and it's easier to just go and get a job when you're there. Am I likely to face problems for being too old? Also, I have a corporate/sales background - what are chances of getting a decent corporate job as a first language English speaker in Taiwan?
