My last career, as you could call it, lasted only half a year and was associated with different, unaffiliated people in various countries. I hope to do this again in the future, but I am on hiatus because this careet does not make an honest dime. I worked on various farms from periods as short as three days to as long as one month, doing many manners of things. Various social and help exchange networks exist that can set a person up with farms or allow people contact means. These farms typically offer room, board, and occasionally travel expenses for travellers wishing to settle short-term in a spot for two to six hours of work per day (15 to 30 hour weeks). The work is always interesting and sometimes labor-intensive; you typically work with livestock and farm animals, vegetables and agricultural products, and home and farm construction. The major drawback, naturally, is the lack of pay. Very few farms or hostels will offer this situation with potential side projects for salary - but they do exist, and people are willing on occasion to give money under the table. Few people know networks like this exist, but they are an excellent way to experience new work and living environments almost everywhere in the world. |
