Teach English overseas (ESL/TESOL)
There are certain professions which lend themselves to globetrotting. Teaching English overseas as a Second Language (ESL) is one of those professions and opens up a world of opportunities, which luckily for Aussies are largely on our doorstep in Asia.
Although Asia is the fastest growing and most lucrative of the ESL teaching job markets, this skill can take you anywhere. If you are open to low wages, a competitive job market or voluntary work, teaching English can get you employment in diverse locations such as Eastern Europe, African Nations and the popular and varied destinations in South America. Teaching English in South America has the added benefits of Spanish, Salsa and a culture which loves a good fiesta.
