Teaching English

If you are fluent in English, this could be the best and easiest opportunity for you while providing you with financial gain.

World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms

Working with World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms is a type of volunteering opportunity that gives you the chance to travel in South East Asia for cheap. Through these programs, you will volunteer to work on organic farms in the region and in return will be provided with free room and board during your stay. In addition, you may find other volunteering opportunities depending on where you are traveling to that also offer these excellent benefits. Some opportunities may also provide you with a small pay for volunteering your time in addition to room and board. This is a great way to save money and potentially earn money while seeing all that South East Asia has to offer.

Hostel Workers

Hostels and hotels are always in need of employees that are fluent in various languages to meet their visitor’s needs. Many hostels will hire part-time and full-time employees and provide them with free room stays within the facility while working there. While this may not be your ideal long-term opportunity, it is a good way to get your feet on the ground within the country and earn some extra money.

Travel Blogging

People across the internet love to read about the lives and adventures of others. Before your holiday in South East Asia, create your own travel blog that you will update regularly. It is important to get your blogs name out there through effective marketing practices in order to gain a following. Visitors and ad clicks on your travel blog will allow you to earn a profit while you write about your travels and things that you have enjoyed while in South East Asia.
