I recommend New Zealand. The cost of living is not great. The value of life is high. There is almost unlimited work in the areas of wineries, kiwi fruit orchaeds, etc.... and the country itself is awesome!

Probably Europe. I tend to save up for my trips over the course of years, so I don't have to work, but if I did, I'd join a teaching program. -------------------- Check out my blogs, Friendo!

You can get to the Island of Santorini and work as a waiter there. We met some guys while there and told us that they get a lot of money there. http://www.travelpod.com/members/greekcypriot Visit my blog to find more Greek destinations and interesting Islands. -------------------- My LATEST BLOGS: Marmari, Vasa, and CYPRUS, the Unique Destination for Business and Holidays!!!
