Where can i work in the world without a degree :)

South Korea is definitely out. Japan has a working holiday visa for 9 countries (including UK and Ireland). China is fine without a degree. Panama is tough to find work. Costa Rica will be illegal work anyway (tourist visa)

This of course depends on the type of work. If you want to be a doctor, some of these countries will prefer some sort of post-secondary education.

Fluffy_bunny - Would you recommend turning up in the country and trying to find work there n then?

Or, would you recommend looking via the Internet? If so, have you got advice where to find these.

The majority of people I have spoken to have said, that it's better to turn up and look. What do you think? Thanks.

Different countries have different rules for visa sponsorship. For example, in Mexico you need all documents and certificates notarized in your home country. If you just "show up" and didn't know this, you would either not get a visa, or have to fly back home.

If teaching English, many schools for example in China or Japan will offer, as part of the contract, flights and accommodation. However, if recruited in-country you will almost never receive these (especially the flight) benefit. However, for places like Costa Rica, it is VERY difficult to prearrange employment, so your only choice is in-country.

If you have specific questions about specific countries, i or other TTers can help. At the moment your questions are far too broad to give any sound advice. Figure out where you want to go, then ask questions

community college. Find out what you're looking for. And get some exposure, to liberal arts.

I might add;

I started comunity college, as a 10th grade drop-out.
I didn't know I had it in me.

We never know our potential.

good luck.

Lots of hostels will take in volunteers for 3 to 4 hours of daily work,in exchange for bed and breakfast.
Here in Panama ,there is an occasional line handlining job running ships through The Panama Canal. Good luck!

Uruguay is easy to find work in as a ESL teacher and it has beautiful beaches!

I was a hell of a lot smarter than my community college teachers. So I dropped out. I do know my potential. What a dumb suggestion. Formal education is for those without stories. If you're going to waste your money on a CELTA, and you have the time, I would highly recommend you start now getting some experience teaching English. The experience serves you a lot more than a piece of paper. Try volunteering in your area to help refugees or immigrants.

Fluffy bunny, thanks for your advise :) I am literally just looking for work to help me survive me and my partner will both be trying to find work so the pay doesnt have to be as much.

Specific countries that are the top of our list for paid work are

Tanzania
Morroco
Mexico
China
Siria
Nicaragua
Brazil
if you can offer any advise on them it would be heaps appreciated.

I have studied, i did not do my a levels or go to uni but i did a nvq in business admin and have worked constantly since I was 16 I am bored of the 9-5 life and am looking for a complete change of lifestyle.
