I’ve been working as an English, Spanish, French, and Japanese teacher since I was 18. I’m 25, and for the last 3 years, I’ve actually started making more money translating. I rented a large apartment, bought deskchairs, whiteboards, and it’s now my school. I set up my office to do my translation work.
I’ve had the place for 3 months, I haven’t been able to gather enough people to teach groups of people, but people take me more seriously once they see the office and classrooms, so I get more translation work and students for private tutoring.

I can’t afforrd to rent another place for me to live, or to pay for another phone and internet conexion. It would look unprofessional to live at my school/office. But if I put my bed in the pantry, and keep my clothes in the closet from my office. Eat out everyday like I always do. No one has to know.

Is it a good idea to secretly live in the pantry from my office?
