Working abroad (south america or africa)?


Working abroad (south america or africa)?
I just graduated and would really like to work abroad. I have business and communications degrees. I'm not opposed to teaching English as well. I can speak Portuguese pretty well, but am not fluent. Same with Spanish, but my Port is def better. I do have student loans to pay back, so I would need to earn a decent wage. Any recommendations and/or websites? Thanks! Can anyone give me more details about how or where or when or what places to apply to? It would be most appreciated.

Look into an embassy job with the State Department. Portuguese would be useful in many countries and Spanish even more if you can improve it.

I think you will have a great experience in Africa, particularly South Africa, (where I'm from), Its pretty westernised though, so English is your best bet...unfortunately? if you are looking for Portuguese?
4 :
Portuguese in Angola and Mozambique, with English as a second language. Near to South Africa for holidays. And qualified people get good pay and nice jobs. They'll greet you in the street and make space on the sidewalk for you to pass. Peace. P.S. Mozambique - Nice swimming in the warm sea (year round) and succulent prawns!!!

Well, you could get in, but few schools (other than elite schools) offer financial aid to international students, and USA tuition can be VERY high.

As good as anyone. Harvard doesn't have a cricket team. Make sure you have letters of recommendation from people in your home town...teachers, people with whom you've worked, your family physician... You will need a large sum of money. Foreign students must have bank accounts here. They also must have health insurance and a sponsor.

I need to be sponsored for a trip to South Africa for college. Any websites I can get help? Idea's? Comments?
I am a member of the National Dean's List 2006-2007. Through this honor, I also have been nominated for the International Scholar Laureate Program, which is a program where students travel to other countries to study cultures, meet VERY important people, and learn through a special curriculum. The cost is $6,000 for the trip. Anybody know where or who I can ask for help? I REALLY want to go!! FYI: The trip is in May 2008, for 11 days.
