| Hey, does anyone know if there are any / many opportunities to teach English in S.Amercia - in particular Argentina or Brazil?
S.America is the last leg of my RTW trip and i'm looking to work there for 6 momths or so to see a different side to and add a new dimension to my travelling experience. Just wondering if it's possible. Doesnt necessarily have to be teaching, alhough i would like to give it a go if poss... Ta! |

| I worked as a volunteer park ranger in Torres del Paine National Park in the Chilean Patagonia many years ago. It was before the days of internet, I sent them a letter saying I spoke Spanish and liked the outdoors, and that was good enough for them. I got food and board, and had an incredible 5 months.
They've got a website nowadays of course, I wouldn't know who you should contact but it might be worth a try if you like the idea. http://www.conaf.cl/ Good luck! http://www.questoverseas.com |

| thanks for the info guys, some great advice. errrm well i'm looking for enough money not to get into any more debt i guess!
these jobs (teaching or non-teaching) - do you reckon this is something i can sort out when i'm over there? cos i've had a little ganders around on the net and i cant see much.. Have you been to S.Amercia then blondie? and particular country you'd recommend me dropping anchor for a while to work? hadn;t been PLANNING on going north of peru to be honest, but ya never know, that could change. |
