1.Teaching English as a Foreign Language.

Learn how to teach English overseas and experience the unique opportunity to travel the world, discover new cultures and connect with a new community. Through helping others learn a valuable skill, you’ll be earning a local living to fund your travels further. You’ll be provided with accommodation, transfers and cultural activities and excursions throughout your course. Upon completion, you’ll be awarded an internationally-recognised accreditation which will give you the freedom to teach and travel all over the world or land a local teaching placement. This is a chance to take a break from your routine back home, challenge yourself in an exciting way and, most importantly, return home feeling proud of the positive impact you’ve made on someone’s education.

2. Be an Au Pair abroad.

An au pair is usually a young person, either female or male, who provides live-in care to the children of a welcoming host family overseas as part of a cultural exchange. You’ll be generously provided with a weekly stipend, your own room in the family home and, typically, two to three meals per day. You may even get the chance to join the family on ski and summer vacations. Being an au pair abroad gives you the freedom to be more than the average tourist by immersing yourself in a completely new culture and developing valuable life skills. You’ll experience personal growth and maturity, and perhaps learn a new language all whilst having the chance to explore a new country. It’s the perfect opportunity to become a cherished part of a family’s life for years to come, while also getting a genuine sense of what life is like overseas.

3. Contract Work.

Some countries provide contract work for “work and holiday.” These jobs are very competitive, but worth a shot if you have the resume to back you up. Try One Shift Jobs in Australia.

10. Make a Seasonal Work

If you’ve ever wondered how to work overseas, then a working holiday is the perfect answer. A working holiday is a cultural exchange concept which allows you to work abroad on a special, government-issued ‘working holiday visa’. You’ll earn a local income to fund your travels and have the freedom to explore the country for longer than the average tourist. It’s the perfect opportunity to travel, live like a local and immerse yourself in a different culture. You’ll learn another language, discover unique traditions, make new friends and create a never-ending bank of incredible moments on this life-changing experience. Embark on a journey of self-discovery and gain international work experience that will look great on your resumé/CV on a working holiday.

11. Be a Volunteer

Volunteering overseas gives you the unique opportunity to experience local cultures first-hand and make a real difference in critical projects and causes internationally, from Africa and Asia, Central and South America to Europe and the South Pacific. Volunteering abroad is generally an all-inclusive voluntourism experience where you’ll play a vital role in creating sustainable and positive change to humanitarian projects, local communities, animal rehabilitation or rescue centres, the natural environment, or at vetted organisations and genuine charitable causes around the world. Plus, you’ll have the chance to experience local activities, excursions and day trips in your time off. See the real world off the beaten tourist path, make new friends, learn new skills and embark on a journey of self-discovery. You’ll return home feeling rewarded and proud of the lasting impact you have made.

12. Work in a Summer Camp

Get ready for the best summer of your life! Summer camps run in the Northern Hemisphere’s summer, when school’s out, from generally late May to August. A tradition that dates back many years in some countries, families send their kids each year to get outdoors for the summer holidays; making friends, memories and learning skills that will last them a lifetime. But those advantages aren’t just for the kids, you will get all of that out of the trip too! As a summer camp counsellor, you’ll be running fun activities for school-aged kids, often living on-site and discovering unique traditions first hand. With most of your living expenses covered whilst at summer camp, you’ll also earn a generous stipend to fund your travels after camp. This is your unique opportunity to work with children and travel for the North American summer. Dive into another culture, shape young lives, make international friends, get paid and have a summer to remember!
