Volunteering is another great option for working abroad, whether in developing countries or for social causes anywhere. Work on an animal preserve in South Africa or on an environmental reclamation project in Nepal. For those wanting a career break, some volunteer positions will pay at least your room and board. For students, ask at your local registrar's office if it's possible to defer your student loan while you're on the volunteer assignment.
Match your interests and experience with a country and project that needs people, just like you.
