Teach English in China yo
That's a good suggestion - Japan or Korea are other options too. You've left it too late to get on some of the schemes that are well-organised, but there are still jobs for you if you go off your own back. Great experience.
I've a mate wot does it. (although obv he ain't taught the English to me yet)
As well as full board and that and a bit of a wage, he gets lessons in calligraphy, meditation, kung fu and cookery.
He doesn't get Full Tilt points though, I get Full Tilt points that I can exchange for golf umbrellas. That's almost the same
lol, theres a couple of sites iv seen that advertise teaching english, coaching sports, building schools/housing etc while living with locals - they definitely seem like a good idea. i think i might be a bit late for the long-term paid positions but some of the shorter (1 or 2 month) schemes seem pretty cool. im well up for the idea of living with locals, probably the best way to experience the country imo
