Help! I was ready to move overseas but the plans have fallen through ( my mate in Chile was going to provide accomodation but he's now had to come home too)
Should i look for a job now or just move then look for one? What do you think. South America or Asia.
I'm stuck here 😕
cheers!
I am not sure where you arefrom but the style of your question suggest you are in the UK. If so, you can work anywhere in the EU without doing anything specific though you might need to register yourself somewhere. Other countries that have tax and other agreements with the EU are also fairly easy to work in but will still generally require you to have a residents permit or a job before you go.
Pretty much any other country is likely to be tough unless you have a job lined up.
You could, of course, become an illegal immigrant by just arriving in the country and getting a job but the type of work you will be able to get would be limited. It's also illegal.

Originally posted by rook n rollI suppose it really dependson what skills you have & what you intent to do. There are clear divides in South America & Asia between the people who have professional jobs (oftn for western firms) and those who work the same as the locals. There are some exceptions, like a friend I have who opened a small restauant in Cusco, but he needed start up capital to do that. If you think there is a demand for your skills such tht you can relatively find a job that allows you to live well then go. If howeve you are unsure what you are going to do there or how easily you'll find that job then I'd only go if you were happy to survive at a basic level on whatever savings you have (which should stretch a long way in these area) and be willing, when the money has gone, to call it quits and come home if things haven't worked out.
