Work
Getting a bona fide job necessitates obtaining a work permit, a time-consuming and difficult process. The most likely source of paid employment is as an English teacher at one of the language institutes, or waiting tables or tending bar in a resort town. Naturalists or river guides may be able to find work with private lodges or adventure-travel operators. Don’t expect to make more than survival wages from these jobs.
