Teaching Abroad
Has anyone taught abroad as a means to travel around? Just curious on what people's experiences were like, which programs they went on, and whatnot. That and I need a job and thought this would be a good way to get around as well.
I know there are lot of information out there on this topic but haven't heard much from people who actually done it. Seems to be a hit or miss sorta thing. Plus I'm kind of intimidated by the number of programs that are available. I hate to commit myself for an year to a job I start hating in the first month.

Would teaching abroad involve actually having to teach which would cut into the travel time available? It would be like having a job at home, only with lower pay. You can travel on your weekends now.

What else would one do in a teaching job? Welders weld, bakers bake, driver drives, and in general workers work. I think it's reasonable to assume that teachers teach.
