I just stumbled on your Chanel while laying on the beach in Mexico thinking about how I might live abroad for a while. I’m an educator , I teach History and Political Science . I’m going to checkout some teaching and state department jobs . Thank you so much . I’m 37 and my son is 19. It’s time to start living my life on my terms .
Kelly Young-Raymore Thank you so much! We are so glad you discovered us. There are a ton of great jobs that pay well for teachers abroad. Be sure to check out Department of Defense jobs for teachers at military bases abroad. These jobs are amazing. Pay and benefits can be over $100K. Even higher. Good luck! And congrats on starting your journey 😉
My sister and husband work in South Korea right out of college without experience and the best part they get to travel all over Asia plus the company pays for one yearly trip for them to come to the USA.
Kelly Young-Raymore I love this. I am also 37 but with a 15 year old daughter. I want to start researching and working towards this now to be ready in 2-3 years. How has your search been going??
I’m so happy i found this video I’m going through a divorce and been depressed that I haven’t really lived my dream since I married young and have kids, I thought it would be impossible with taking my kids but this vid made me feel so much Better !!

hey there thank you for all this valuable information ! but i have a quick question to ask y'all : what the name of that job of just mingling in english with the guests that were at the hilton hotel ?
Let us know if you have any questions about finding a job abroad. We'll try our best to answer your question and maybe even point you to a job opening!
Great video! I was wondering if you had any advice for me? I am 20 years old and I want to fly from the nest early whilst I'm young; however, I'm worried to do so as I already work a good job that provides a pension scheme and I fear that I may be too inexperienced to start from scratch somewhere new. Would you recommend I wait a few years, or just go for it?
We were in a very similar situation when we first went abroad. We took the leap but we left our stateside employers on good terms. We shared our reasons for wanting to try something new abroad and they were supportive and told us if we ever wanted to comeback we could. That made the decision easier. Once we were abroad we found that more opportunities opened up. The experience we gained was also greater; which made us more valuable to employers. Everyone's situation is different and complex so its hard to say what you should do. But consider all the pros and cons and devise a plan A, B and C. Our Plan B was to return to our employers. Thankfully we didn't have to but if we did at least we would have tried living abroad. Something else that is nice about being young is your life is less complex. You also have time to try new things. The pension is great but for many it keeps them at jobs that don's allow them to reach their full potential. Have you heard of the "Golden Handcuffs"? And sometime the longer with you're with a company the harder it is to leave because the benefits you're giving up seem to great. Hope that helps. Whatever you decide please come back and share. Take care!
@@OurRichJourney Thank you for your advise, I'm very grateful! That's very true that company's will try to tie people down with extra benefits, I keep forgetting that at this age I should be gathering experience, not worrying about pensions 😂😂 I might as well take the leap! I will let you know when I've finally done it, thank you! 😊
I am interested in finding a job aboard in the Philippines, or near the Philippines. I am an inventory specialist at my current job. I also do sales orders, purchase orders, work orders. Corridor is the data entry we use. And a part of my job is using Crystal Reports to pull reports for the company. Do you have any ideal of where I might find something in that area? I also have a lot of training and experience in lean manufacturing where I help companies implement lean. Thank you in advance for your help.
You should look in Japan for a positon. Many of our friends visit the Philippines from here. Its a quick flight. Check our USAjobs or a contractor like lockhead martin or Alutiq. Good luck!
I stumbled across your channel and have been binge watching episodes. Everything resonates strongly with me. My wife and I have been living abroad for almost 15 years now, working in int'l schools. You're right about it not just being for classroom teachers. She's a librarian and I'm a speech pathologist. It was the best decision that we ever made.
Greetings Andrea 💕 WWOOF always gets my attention. I've been interested in it since years. Can you guide me a bit with your journey? I would be so thankful to you. Love and prayers. 💕😊
@@MisaHalit yes it was an amazing experience. It depends on where you go as to what you will be spending your day doing. I stayed at a huge property where the owners just had a little hobby farm and Garden. They were both professionals who worked from home so they had people for cleaning out the horse stalls and the chicken coops (she also trained horses ) I spent my working hours gardening as well and painting. And eating the most delicious vegetarian/vegan diet. I hope you get around to it. It's an unforgettable experience. I have a friend who stayed at a vineyard in Italy and helped with the process of making and packaging the wine. There are some great places to stay out there!
@@JennyJoshYou just motivated me and I'm questioning myself WHY HAVEN'T YOU TRIED THIS YETTTTTT? Well thank you. May the great universe blesses you with more magic moments 😀💕
@@123garci woahhh 💕I can feel that positive energy. As if the air around me transformed and brought with it the scent of that refreshing experience. Okay WWOOF I'm coming. 😀 Thank you. Much respect. Wish you bliss and blessings. 💕
I don't usually leave any comments on RUclips videos but this was the single most helpful RUclips video I've ever seen for someone in my position. I'm 27 years old and a former digital nomad, I've lived in six countries total but I'm now settled down in the suburbs of Chicago. However I've been itching to travel from a long time and have struggled to find the right opportunities or path forward. I'm also an e-commerce entrepreneur as of the past 3 1/2 years but I'm looking to sell my company and return to the workforce. My passions are marketing, community building and travel. This list was so helpful to me and I look forward to looking deeper into some of the categories and companies that you mentioned. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
I'm living and working abroad in China. I'm so happy that I've found your channel. The benefits of living abroad, such as good income compared to low cost of living, definitely make me feel confident that I can achieve FIRE while living a life that I love.
Love the video !! I moved to China 2 months ago to teach English. It was a big career change (from social work) but I’m glad I took a leap of faith, best decision I’ve made !!!
Hi Drea. Am interested in English teaching opportunities abroad too, despite having an international relations background. Could you kindly share how you got this teaching opportunity in China?
Joan Wamahiga hey girlie !! I did tons of google reach, and I came across a few teaching positions with Disney. I applied and the rest is history lol. I suggest if teaching is something you want to do, do your research !! My company literally paid for everything even my flight to China, the only thing I had to pay for was stuff on my end I.e work visa, passport (if you don’t already have one), background check etc. However, the best part is my company reimbursed me for the things I had to pay for.
Hi! I grew up in international schools my entire life. My dad was an expat for a huge American oil & gas company, even though we are Indonesian. I loved growing up abroad travelling! I hope to continue this as I enter the tech industry
Not easy to be from Algeria. If you can swing it, I'd recommend studying somewhere like France and just keep going until you make it happen. You don't need very much money as a student in France and the government will help you once you are a resident. Once you are qualified in a useful field, you can leave France if you want. Just a thought.
I'm a certified teacher from California and work in the city you showed for China! 😆 What are the odds? But yes I highly recommend working at International Schools! I wish more teachers in the states realized they could do this! Often better pay in comparison to the cost of living and many things are covered. I get free meals, housing allowance and a decent salary. Plus being in Asia, it's so cheap to travel around. Loved this video!
Hi I am a Canadian looking to work in international schools but am not a certified teacher, I work in the school board now as an EA or educational assistant - working with special needs children. Do you know if this is a job that they would hire for? I am finding it difficult to navigate this journey.
@@hibbyturnbull2395 Hello! It depends on where you want to go and the school. I have seen some positions that hire for Assistant teachers. Special Education is still developing overseas but I'm sure there are opportunities. Check out (Dave's ESL) website. They have many positions and countries that are looking for people. Consider being an English teacher to get your foot in the door and then networking and navigating the market when you arrive in your preferred country. Good Luck on your journey!
I work in an international school same province (Guangdong). Also at international school in Foshan I will be visiting Shenzhen shortly. Keeping an eye out for job opportunities around china! :P

It's a wierd time to be 37 years old person with an engineering master degree in electronics and not finding a job for more than 1 year of applying would you say?
I love how you glance at each other as the video goes on to make sure you're on the same page - it's adorable!! you both seem like lovely people, and it's so inspirational how you built such a quality, nontraditional lifestyle for yourselves. I'm a recent college graduate who has personally always dreamed of living and working abroad, so this really hits home for me. currently trying to convince my parents that this is a "realistic" route to take -- they are extremely skeptical. I think I'm going to show them this video as evidence! thanks for all the great information
Wow!. Thank you for the compliments. That really made our day. Before working abroad we also though it was unrealistic or difficult to find a job. However after living and working abroad for almost 10 years we've found that there are tons of positions abroad. And in almost every discipline. And companies are always hiring because people come and go or continue to travel. We don't say which company we work for but I can tell you that our company has a lot of vacancies in Japan and Italy. Our company just doesn't get a lot of applicants; mainly because they don't do a good job of adverting the jobs. Its that simple. Another factor is applicants don't look abroad. Most people don't realize all the great benefits. There are also a lot of people that are afraid to make the big move. We were very much like you when we moved abroad. We were recent grads. We didn't even have much work experience but we were enthusiastic and open minded. So we started looking and applying and before long we were both working in Spain. After getting our first job abroad we found getting other jobs abroad was easier. The most amazing thing about our journey is that our family joined us in Japan. Amon's father retired here and lives in the same neighborhood. Amon's brother also moved here and works for one of the companies mentioned. And other friends have made the big move. We have friends that started looking abroad and are now working in Singapore, Italy, Korea, etc. Who knows...maybe your parents will join you when you start your life abroad. Please check back and let us know how your search goes. And always feel free to ask questions.
Thank you so much for this reply! I really didn't expect such an extensive, thoughtful message - this made my day too. :) It's so exciting for me to hear about your successful transition to working abroad. The journey you're describing very much mirrors how I dream of my life progressing. I just got out of college this past May with a double major in Creative Writing and Film Studies. Perhaps my "artistic" disposition is what has always drawn me towards travel; my biggest priority in life is connecting with others in a meaningful way. I aspire to form bonds with people from all over the world, establish a broadened perspective, and then share written work about my experience. Sounds dramatic, but I truly believe stories can bring people together! Anyways, this brings me to present day - I have been set on moving abroad as a post-college push towards independence. I have professional/academic experience in writing and film, but since it's so difficult to find entry level jobs in these disciplines, I'm looking into being an au pair in Spain for 3 months as a "first step," while writing freelance for supplemental income. I found some family arrangements where I'll have only 20 hours of work/week, and I think this will allow me time to continue developing my writing and searching for more full-time jobs. But given how "nonprofessional" the au pair position sounds, my parents are skeptical. My mom is a bit of a controlling personality and is pushing for me to take graduate classes or find a job in NY instead (I also think she wants me close to home). This isn't what I want at all. In my head, I picture myself developing a life for myself abroad, or even living there for a few months, coming home again for some time, and then returning - I picture myself gradually achieving enough success to make my parents proud and maybe even buy them a ticket to come visit. But it's such a tough sell right now. I know this is a lengthy message, and I can't expect you to be my life coach, but I given your experience and years of wisdom, I was wondering if you had any advice on how to handle my situation? Do you think I'm being unpractical with my goals? Is there a better alternative? I'm quite stuck at the moment, and would love any guidance. Thanks for your lovely videos. I've just subscribed and watched a ton - all so informative and useful. Hope y'all are doing well. xo :)
We think many people can relate to your situation. This may sound random but maybe you should journal your thoughts or develop a blog. You're an excellent writer, with a very fascinating story. We would follow your blog! Personally we've also found writing to be very therapeutic and helpful in setting our goals or exploring our thoughts. If you go to Spain document your adventures abroad and your life as an au pair, writer, filmmaker, creator, daughter, expat, etc. In a way you'd be building your resume/portfolio by taking what you've learned in college and creating something (blog, youtube channel, book, documentary, etc). We cant say definitively what you should do, but we'd say do what makes you happy. We hope that makes sense.
I have a daughter named Lili too ( Short for Liliana ) You seem to be as adventurous as she is...She is an excellent singer and songwriter...But she just joined the Air Force... ( She is my only daughter, the baby of three kids ) I always thought she would just sing...She's been singing nonstop since she was a baby... She surprised me with the Military thing...I'm not new to it...My Stepfather was an Army Drill Sergeant...She is at bootcamp now... I thought I would tell you this because...I think you are a very intelligent and articulate young lady...Just like my Lili and when you say the things you say...Especially the part about your parents...It reminds me of me and the convos my daughter and I had...They love you very much and want to protect you as I do my Lili...But I also know that we as parents have to allow our kids to fly... I say do what you feel deep down in your heart...That will make you happy. Be still and quiet ( meditate ) and listen to what your soul tells you...Do lots of research...I mean lots...Read what others have to say about any company you are dealing with and believe those that have had bad experiences when they say they have...Find a safe program and if you choose...Wet your feet by trying it out...Do Not commit to anything long term and make sure that you have a way to get back home if you must...Find out what the laws are in the countries you are considering and what if any help you will get from the US Embassy or other Govt agency should you need it. By all means Do Not keep your parents and family in the dark. Share what you find with them and explain to them why you want to do it...For how long and all the details...I think if you can connect with other people that have done this...Especially solo females...You parents may feel a little better...The fear is something bad happening to you...This I can assure you and so many other things that can go wrong and your parents not being able to get to you or help you. Foreign countries are very different and do things way differently than the US. I don't think there is going to be much you can tell your parents...They will have to do their own research...As I did with my daughter and come around on their own and accept what they choose too. Remember it's okay if they don't agree with everything...Your job is not to try to convince them...Your job is to find a program that is safe and works for you. They will come around...As you grow and mature into the woman you choose to be...Sorry so long and Good luck...God bless you...Wherever you may go. ( Please do blog...I will follow too :)) Disclaimer : This is just a personal opinion...Not legal advice...You or anyone reading this...Can do as you choose.* ~ Mari :)) #ManyBlessings
This is a wonderful video! United Nations has tons of jobs abroad. People can also consider peace corps also. I also looked at none gov or non profit organizations around the world. These in particular offer internships for students and some hire you. You guys nailed it! Thanks
This is so cute...the both of them....he looked so nervous initially...and she appeared to be helping him out while trying to get their content out there despite feeling nervous herself....🤩...5 stars these two...
This was actually helpful, especially since I don't have a degree, im young, nothing to lose, and no college (American prices are stupid expensive) thank you so much!
This is such a fantastic video! My wife and I love you guy’s channel and we have both been exploring this concept for a while. It is great to see people actually doing this. Keep making videos guys. They are greatly appreciated!
Thank you for the support and encouragement. It really means a lot. We'll keep the videos coming. Glad to hear you guys are considering working abroad. Deciding to work abroad was one of the best decisions we've made. We have many friends that made the move and are so happy they did. In fact, we are in Singapore this week visiting one of those friends. Thanks again!
I came across your channel about a month ago. All the content is great. I really like this video because of the more off the cuff interactions between the two of you. Like I said, I’ve enjoyed all your videos but this is the first one that made me want to comment. I like the more informal style. Keep up the good work
Thank you! We have fun. A lot of laughs. In fact we have to remember to talk to the camera more and not so much to each other....lol. Thanks for the encouragement! We'll keep'em coming for sure!
I once knew someone who previously worked as an Ambassador to the US State Dept. She mostly served in Asia or India or with the Aussies, prepping events for international visitors. Cool gig!! 😎
WWOOF is similar to another organisation called work away. Work away does the exact same thing, but on top of farming, there are other jobs as well, like people who just need help with their kids or in their garden, you can work in remote schools etc.
Finally some digital nomad advice that follows the rules. Most so called digital nomad advocates on RUclips recommend finding any remote job in the US and just working abroad with it, which is absolutely not allowed due to the tax liabilities it creates for the employer. I like that you guys recommend the correct approach of an actual physical international assignment transfer to the foreign office. That is the correct way to do it. Either that or setting up your own LLC and taking C2C contracts. Automatically you have more credibility than 99% of people on RUclips giving bad or incorrect digital nomad advice.
I was in Japan under WWOOF before but now I'm looking for a paid job, not just free housing & meals. I can't do job in teaching as English is not my native language but I'm going to try applying for other positions. Thanks for sharing!!
I’m looking to country hop! How can i acquire a job abroad with traveling 50% - I have no kids or pets, love people and have over 20 years of sales, public relations, customer service, running my own companies…. Building relationships is what I do Best! Looking to leave the USA in December 2022 or early next year, for good. Also open to renouncing citizenship if needed. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Ski Resorts are great! Prob best younger people like in their 20s. but you get cheap staff accommodation hooked up for you and you get a free ski/bike pass. Canada, States, Australia, Japan, ect.
I’m a licensed teacher in China and have been here for 5 years total. I used Teach Away to get several legit jobs-which I mention because going through local agents can be sketchy! Anyhow, I am so thrilled that you mentioned China. Many mention teaching in the Middle East, and I did, but the cost of living is so much higher that even with housing paid for, it’s a wash. China’s incredible and cheap public transportation makes living here car free so easy! I love knowing that I can provide a pleasant life for myself while saving towards early retirement, which was impossible when teaching while indebted in Florida. My debt will be gone soon and I will be well on my way!
Love your channel and want to thank you very much for sharing so much useful information! I realize you two are still young, but I as a 60 yr old, would love to hear how you might advise your parents generation for those seeking to achieve FIRE
Thank you so much for this video! I'm currently studying finance and want to live abroad when I graduate and this video gives me so many ideals about companies apply for to accomplish that
OMG! Thank you so much! We are so happy to hear that! Going abroad changed our lives in so many positive ways. It was the best decision we made as a family. In fact since we went abroad our family members have also made the leap. Amon's brother found a job in Japan (with amazing benefits) and his Dad retired in Japan (after living in Spain for year). Everyone was so happy they made the move. Please keep us updated on your journey. Thanks again!
I love this video! Thanknyou for sharing!! Ive always wanted to live abroad!! But ive never known what job to get besides teaching, now I know I have more options!! Youre an inspiration!!
Did you have to know Japanese or Spanish to work in Japan and Spain? I noticed many of the job postings for overseas jobs require language skills. In addition to that, sometimes you have to deal with work visas. For instance, I am actually not from America but studied and worked in the US. The US is becoming increasingly difficult to work in because of the work visa restrictions. I imagine it may be easier for American citizens to get jobs both in America and in other countries than it is for people from some other countries to do the same. In general I find that the process of getting jobs overseas is quite competitive with many people wanting jobs overseas. This is despite the fact that I have an MBA from a top 10 US business school as well as more than 15 years of work experience.
Emma Seow - We don't speak Japanese or Spanish and our jobs don't require additional language skills. I agree with your point about competition - some jobs can be quite competitive. I think it just depends on the particular job, the location, the employer - so many factors. Good luck in your job search!
@@OurRichJourney Thanks for the reply! That's helpful to know. Thanks also for the website providing us with information about jobs at schools overseas. If you could post other links to job boards for international jobs or other sources for looking for overseas jobs I think that would be helpful for many viewers! (Besides the actual company websites and Linkedin which most viewers would probably be aware of already.)
Great video. I have put this idea on the back burner for 2018, while I get rid of debt and increase skills. Hopefully in 2019/2020, I can pick up again. We want to live in Bali, or stay for longer periods of time.
Thank you! Bali is an amazing place. We have friends that retired early (40s) to Bali. They love it there.There are also people that work from Bali because they've been able to find jobs that allow them to work virtually or they've created an online business. However you move to Bali, please come back and share your journey. I'm sure it will inspire others. Thanks again!
This was probably the best video for working abroad! Thank you so much so many places I wouldn’t of even thought of!! I’m studying abroad and about to graduate in Europe but would love to stay out here, would I need to go back to the USA for interviews for most of these jobs or could I just try it from here? Thank you so much for this insight, loved the video and loved you guys!
Thank you for the question. Most jobs we've interviewed for abroad have been via phone or skype. So no need to be in the US. We interviewed for our Japan job while in Spain :-)
Our Rich Journey that’s amazing! Thank you! I’ll start now before graduation in a few months, I would love to stay in Europe for work. Traveling here is much easier and so many options and super cheap compared to back home! One thing I’ve wondered though, do most of these follow mainly European laws of work or American standards (such as pay, holidays...paid holidays and such?) either way it’s sounding better and better out here with health insurance and all! Thank you again! :)
Great video, thanks! Just wondering how can somebody find a job overseas online since all companies require you to have work authorization in the country at the time of application?
@@OurRichJourney Awww, thanks to you, guys! Also, coud you help me please? I lost my fiancé recently and I want to start over in Asia or any other english-speaking country. My concern is that I've been unemployed since 2014, freelancing here and there on small IT projects (building Access apps), but nothing fancy. I have an international professional background (finance, project management), having worked in France, Switzerland, Cameroon, in very diverse roles and was helping my fiancé on his company, mainly on administrative tasks. Do you think that that 5 year gap would be a problem to get hired? I am 37, bilingual french/english and hold a french citizenship. I would really appreciate your advice and thank you very much. Btw, I love Japan, never been there but I took a few japanese classes when I was in college in France. Hope you're enjoying it there.
Any advice or somebody who has anxiety, lacking social skills plus up against all odds with nobody to lean on? Hopeful but way stressed it's hard...to know what's possible&don't know what's possible & don't have a clue of what I could be good at or useful in. 27 and only have a h.s. diploma.
Our advice...stay positive and surround yourself with positive people. And when negative people say you cant do it, use that as fuel to prove them wrong. Try not to focus on the challenges but rather focus on finding a solution. What are you passionate about? A college degree is not required to be successful. You can make your own path without one or you can go get one now (its not too late). Christina went to law school at 34! Most of all TRY TRY TRY and dont take no for an answer.
Oh my god I’m so happy y’all made this great video! I’m a recent high school grad who’s always wanted to go abroad to Japan! Oh this was such a great video. Amazing!
I WWOOFed in Ghana in 2018 for 2 weeks. One of the greatest experiences of my life. We got to experience the authentic culture of the nation while living for free in exchange for assisting the farmer with their operations. Highly recommend!
One ressource that I think Americans should tap in is American embassies or consulates around the World, specially in countries with very low cost of life. They pay you an American rate, they pay moving fees, they make sure you're safe and educated about the place, they offer safe housing, sometimes free, they enroll your children in a local American school. The cost of living is so low that you could save up to 90% of your income and still live like a king. That's still under the government jobs category but more specific. They need from a Janitor to an administrator, translator, secretary etc...
I have various friends/relatives working for american embassies. Just a caution, application process/background check for consulor can take upto two years, you may not get your pick on country placement, and many of the positions require you to already have work permit for the country.

I just stumbled on your Chanel while laying on the beach in Mexico thinking about how I might live abroad for a while. I’m an educator , I teach History and Political Science . I’m going to checkout some teaching and state department jobs . Thank you so much . I’m 37 and my son is 19. It’s time to start living my life on my terms .

Our Rich Journey thank you for the tip
Thank You. I'm hopeful
My sister and husband work in South Korea right out of college without experience and the best part they get to travel all over Asia plus the company pays for one yearly trip for them to come to the USA.
Kelly Young-Raymore I love this. I am also 37 but with a 15 year old daughter. I want to start researching and working towards this now to be ready in 2-3 years. How has your search been going??
I’m so happy i found this video I’m going through a divorce and been depressed that I haven’t really lived my dream since I married young and have kids, I thought it would be impossible with taking my kids but this vid made me feel so much Better !!
It gets better dear
Exactly the reason why I'm watching this video. Did you ended up doing it?
Such a lovely and intelligent couple. Rare sight to see.
Thank you for the love :)
I see it a lot,
In movies...
It's getting harder to find individuals with intelligence.

Yes they are! Love there interactions.
hey there thank you for all this valuable information ! but i have a quick question to ask y'all : what the name of that job of just mingling in english with the guests that were at the hilton hotel ?
Let us know if you have any questions about finding a job abroad. We'll try our best to answer your question and maybe even point you to a job opening!
Great video! I was wondering if you had any advice for me? I am 20 years old and I want to fly from the nest early whilst I'm young; however, I'm worried to do so as I already work a good job that provides a pension scheme and I fear that I may be too inexperienced to start from scratch somewhere new. Would you recommend I wait a few years, or just go for it?
We were in a very similar situation when we first went abroad. We took the leap but we left our stateside employers on good terms. We shared our reasons for wanting to try something new abroad and they were supportive and told us if we ever wanted to comeback we could. That made the decision easier. Once we were abroad we found that more opportunities opened up. The experience we gained was also greater; which made us more valuable to employers. Everyone's situation is different and complex so its hard to say what you should do. But consider all the pros and cons and devise a plan A, B and C. Our Plan B was to return to our employers. Thankfully we didn't have to but if we did at least we would have tried living abroad. Something else that is nice about being young is your life is less complex. You also have time to try new things. The pension is great but for many it keeps them at jobs that don's allow them to reach their full potential. Have you heard of the "Golden Handcuffs"? And sometime the longer with you're with a company the harder it is to leave because the benefits you're giving up seem to great. Hope that helps. Whatever you decide please come back and share. Take care!
@@OurRichJourney Thank you for your advise, I'm very grateful!
That's very true that company's will try to tie people down with extra benefits, I keep forgetting that at this age I should be gathering experience, not worrying about pensions 😂😂
I might as well take the leap! I will let you know when I've finally done it, thank you! 😊
I am interested in finding a job aboard in the Philippines, or near the Philippines. I am an inventory specialist at my current job. I also do sales orders, purchase orders, work orders. Corridor is the data entry we use. And a part of my job is using Crystal Reports to pull reports for the company. Do you have any ideal of where I might find something in that area? I also have a lot of training and experience in lean manufacturing where I help companies implement lean. Thank you in advance for your help.
You should look in Japan for a positon. Many of our friends visit the Philippines from here. Its a quick flight. Check our USAjobs or a contractor like lockhead martin or Alutiq. Good luck!
I stumbled across your channel and have been binge watching episodes. Everything resonates strongly with me. My wife and I have been living abroad for almost 15 years now, working in int'l schools. You're right about it not just being for classroom teachers. She's a librarian and I'm a speech pathologist. It was the best decision that we ever made.
Done WWOOF on Vancouver Island, BC. Incredible experience living with incredible people. One of the great highlights of my life. Great bonus!
Greetings Andrea 💕 WWOOF always gets my attention. I've been interested in it since years. Can you guide me a bit with your journey? I would be so thankful to you. Love and prayers. 💕😊
@@MisaHalit yes it was an amazing experience. It depends on where you go as to what you will be spending your day doing. I stayed at a huge property where the owners just had a little hobby farm and Garden. They were both professionals who worked from home so they had people for cleaning out the horse stalls and the chicken coops (she also trained horses ) I spent my working hours gardening as well and painting. And eating the most delicious vegetarian/vegan diet. I hope you get around to it. It's an unforgettable experience. I have a friend who stayed at a vineyard in Italy and helped with the process of making and packaging the wine. There are some great places to stay out there!
@@JennyJoshYou just motivated me and I'm questioning myself WHY HAVEN'T YOU TRIED THIS YETTTTTT?
Well thank you. May the great universe blesses you with more magic moments 😀💕
@@123garci woahhh 💕I can feel that positive energy. As if the air around me transformed and brought with it the scent of that refreshing experience. Okay WWOOF I'm coming. 😀
Thank you. Much respect. Wish you bliss and blessings. 💕
Vancouver Island is one of my favorite places. Sounds like a fantastic experience.
I don't usually leave any comments on RUclips videos but this was the single most helpful RUclips video I've ever seen for someone in my position. I'm 27 years old and a former digital nomad, I've lived in six countries total but I'm now settled down in the suburbs of Chicago. However I've been itching to travel from a long time and have struggled to find the right opportunities or path forward. I'm also an e-commerce entrepreneur as of the past 3 1/2 years but I'm looking to sell my company and return to the workforce. My passions are marketing, community building and travel. This list was so helpful to me and I look forward to looking deeper into some of the categories and companies that you mentioned. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
I'm living and working abroad in China. I'm so happy that I've found your channel. The benefits of living abroad, such as good income compared to low cost of living, definitely make me feel confident that I can achieve FIRE while living a life that I love.
What kind of work do you do?
What kind of work?
Love the video !! I moved to China 2 months ago to teach English. It was a big career change (from social work) but I’m glad I took a leap of faith, best decision I’ve made !!!
China - soooooo exciting!!! Congratulations on taking a leap of faith! Moving abroad was one of the best things we ever did! :)
Hi Drea. Am interested in English teaching opportunities abroad too, despite having an international relations background. Could you kindly share how you got this teaching opportunity in China?
Joan Wamahiga hey girlie !! I did tons of google reach, and I came across a few teaching positions with Disney. I applied and the rest is history lol. I suggest if teaching is something you want to do, do your research !! My company literally paid for everything even my flight to China, the only thing I had to pay for was stuff on my end I.e work visa, passport (if you don’t already have one), background check etc. However, the best part is my company reimbursed me for the things I had to pay for.
Yo.Drea hi dear can you help me get the chance to teach English in China
SWF USA most places only require you to have a bachelors degree it doesn’t matter in what. But having experience working with children is helpful
I'm a support staff at a community College and my wife is an engineer so I am pretty excited after watching this video. Thanks!
Glad to hear it! We love living abroad! :)
Hi! I grew up in international schools my entire life. My dad was an expat for a huge American oil & gas company, even though we are Indonesian. I loved growing up abroad travelling! I hope to continue this as I enter the tech industry
Yes - It's almost like once you get that travel bug (or living internationally), it's hard to stop!!!
I'm a 26 years old Algerian girl ,and being looking for a job abroad for years without any success !
Thanks for sharing all the useful information
So glad you found the information useful! :)
Hey did this help
Not easy to be from Algeria. If you can swing it, I'd recommend studying somewhere like France and just keep going until you make it happen. You don't need very much money as a student in France and the government will help you once you are a resident. Once you are qualified in a useful field, you can leave France if you want. Just a thought.
being abroad is an eye opening experience, plus the benefits of working for a company while doing it you just cant beat. great video!
Thanks! Life abroad just kept calling us. We love it here!
Great video' new subbie here: will you help me finding a job in usa or companies hiring overseas from there( kansas state)
I'm a certified teacher from California and work in the city you showed for China! 😆 What are the odds? But yes I highly recommend working at International Schools! I wish more teachers in the states realized they could do this! Often better pay in comparison to the cost of living and many things are covered. I get free meals, housing allowance and a decent salary. Plus being in Asia, it's so cheap to travel around. Loved this video!
WOW! Small world! Thanks for watching our videos. We have another living abroad video posting in a couple of days. We think you'll like it.
Hi I am a Canadian looking to work in international schools but am not a certified teacher, I work in the school board now as an EA or educational assistant - working with special needs children. Do you know if this is a job that they would hire for? I am finding it difficult to navigate this journey.
@@hibbyturnbull2395 Hello! It depends on where you want to go and the school. I have seen some positions that hire for Assistant teachers. Special Education is still developing overseas but I'm sure there are opportunities. Check out (Dave's ESL) website. They have many positions and countries that are looking for people. Consider being an English teacher to get your foot in the door and then networking and navigating the market when you arrive in your preferred country. Good Luck on your journey!
I want to do that so badly!!! How do I start???
I work in an international school same province (Guangdong). Also at international school in Foshan I will be visiting Shenzhen shortly. Keeping an eye out for job opportunities around china! :P

Do these companies hire only US citizens?
It's a wierd time to be 37 years old person with an engineering master degree in electronics and not finding a job for more than 1 year of applying would you say?
Hii I want to do Job in abroad
I love how you glance at each other as the video goes on to make sure you're on the same page - it's adorable!! you both seem like lovely people, and it's so inspirational how you built such a quality, nontraditional lifestyle for yourselves. I'm a recent college graduate who has personally always dreamed of living and working abroad, so this really hits home for me. currently trying to convince my parents that this is a "realistic" route to take -- they are extremely skeptical. I think I'm going to show them this video as evidence! thanks for all the great information
Wow!. Thank you for the compliments. That really made our day. Before working abroad we also though it was unrealistic or difficult to find a job. However after living and working abroad for almost 10 years we've found that there are tons of positions abroad. And in almost every discipline. And companies are always hiring because people come and go or continue to travel. We don't say which company we work for but I can tell you that our company has a lot of vacancies in Japan and Italy. Our company just doesn't get a lot of applicants; mainly because they don't do a good job of adverting the jobs. Its that simple. Another factor is applicants don't look abroad. Most people don't realize all the great benefits. There are also a lot of people that are afraid to make the big move. We were very much like you when we moved abroad. We were recent grads. We didn't even have much work experience but we were enthusiastic and open minded. So we started looking and applying and before long we were both working in Spain. After getting our first job abroad we found getting other jobs abroad was easier. The most amazing thing about our journey is that our family joined us in Japan. Amon's father retired here and lives in the same neighborhood. Amon's brother also moved here and works for one of the companies mentioned. And other friends have made the big move. We have friends that started looking abroad and are now working in Singapore, Italy, Korea, etc. Who knows...maybe your parents will join you when you start your life abroad. Please check back and let us know how your search goes. And always feel free to ask questions.
Thank you so much for this reply! I really didn't expect such an extensive, thoughtful message - this made my day too. :) It's so exciting for me to hear about your successful transition to working abroad. The journey you're describing very much mirrors how I dream of my life progressing. I just got out of college this past May with a double major in Creative Writing and Film Studies. Perhaps my "artistic" disposition is what has always drawn me towards travel; my biggest priority in life is connecting with others in a meaningful way. I aspire to form bonds with people from all over the world, establish a broadened perspective, and then share written work about my experience. Sounds dramatic, but I truly believe stories can bring people together! Anyways, this brings me to present day - I have been set on moving abroad as a post-college push towards independence.
I have professional/academic experience in writing and film, but since it's so difficult to find entry level jobs in these disciplines, I'm looking into being an au pair in Spain for 3 months as a "first step," while writing freelance for supplemental income. I found some family arrangements where I'll have only 20 hours of work/week, and I think this will allow me time to continue developing my writing and searching for more full-time jobs. But given how "nonprofessional" the au pair position sounds, my parents are skeptical.
My mom is a bit of a controlling personality and is pushing for me to take graduate classes or find a job in NY instead (I also think she wants me close to home). This isn't what I want at all. In my head, I picture myself developing a life for myself abroad, or even living there for a few months, coming home again for some time, and then returning - I picture myself gradually achieving enough success to make my parents proud and maybe even buy them a ticket to come visit. But it's such a tough sell right now.
I know this is a lengthy message, and I can't expect you to be my life coach, but I given your experience and years of wisdom, I was wondering if you had any advice on how to handle my situation? Do you think I'm being unpractical with my goals? Is there a better alternative? I'm quite stuck at the moment, and would love any guidance. Thanks for your lovely videos. I've just subscribed and watched a ton - all so informative and useful. Hope y'all are doing well. xo :)
We think many people can relate to your situation. This may sound random but maybe you should journal your thoughts or develop a blog. You're an excellent writer, with a very fascinating story. We would follow your blog! Personally we've also found writing to be very therapeutic and helpful in setting our goals or exploring our thoughts. If you go to Spain document your adventures abroad and your life as an au pair, writer, filmmaker, creator, daughter, expat, etc. In a way you'd be building your resume/portfolio by taking what you've learned in college and creating something (blog, youtube channel, book, documentary, etc). We cant say definitively what you should do, but we'd say do what makes you happy. We hope that makes sense.
I have a daughter named Lili too ( Short for Liliana ) You seem to be as adventurous as she is...She is an excellent singer and songwriter...But she just joined the Air Force... ( She is my only daughter, the baby of three kids ) I always thought she would just sing...She's been singing nonstop since she was a baby... She surprised me with the Military thing...I'm not new to it...My Stepfather was an Army Drill Sergeant...She is at bootcamp now...
I thought I would tell you this because...I think you are a very intelligent and articulate young lady...Just like my Lili and when you say the things you say...Especially the part about your parents...It reminds me of me and the convos my daughter and I had...They love you very much and want to protect you as I do my Lili...But I also know that we as parents have to allow our kids to fly...
I say do what you feel deep down in your heart...That will make you happy. Be still and quiet ( meditate ) and listen to what your soul tells you...Do lots of research...I mean lots...Read what others have to say about any company you are dealing with and believe those that have had bad experiences when they say they have...Find a safe program and if you choose...Wet your feet by trying it out...Do Not commit to anything long term and make sure that you have a way to get back home if you must...Find out what the laws are in the countries you are considering and what if any help you will get from the US Embassy or other Govt agency should you need it.
By all means Do Not keep your parents and family in the dark. Share what you find with them and explain to them why you want to do it...For how long and all the details...I think if you can connect with other people that have done this...Especially solo females...You parents may feel a little better...The fear is something bad happening to you...This I can assure you and so many other things that can go wrong and your parents not being able to get to you or help you. Foreign countries are very different and do things way differently than the US.
I don't think there is going to be much you can tell your parents...They will have to do their own research...As I did with my daughter and come around on their own and accept what they choose too. Remember it's okay if they don't agree with everything...Your job is not to try to convince them...Your job is to find a program that is safe and works for you. They will come around...As you grow and mature into the woman you choose to be...Sorry so long and Good luck...God bless you...Wherever you may go. ( Please do blog...I will follow too :))

Stumble upon this channel and started watching, very informative videos for people out there who want to reach FIRE.
U guys, for some reason, r my favourite YT couple now : ) lovely presented, genuine approach.
Marko Markovic - Your favorite YT couple???!!! That is amazing!!!! Thank you so much for commenting. This comment completely made our day!!!!! :)
This is a wonderful video! United Nations has tons of jobs abroad. People can also consider peace corps also. I also looked at none gov or non profit organizations around the world. These in particular offer internships for students and some hire you. You guys nailed it! Thanks
Great comments/insight! Thank you for adding to the conversation!
Hi I just want to say that I appreciated your guys kindness, I can feel how nice both of you are. Many thanks for your good hearts ❤
Awww that is so sweet! Thank you for the love :)
This is so cute...the both of them....he looked so nervous initially...and she appeared to be helping him out while trying to get their content out there despite feeling nervous herself....🤩...5 stars these two...
THANKS MOM AND DAD 😂😂🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 thank you for this info! So appreciative for this channel!
Aww!! Thank you! So glad you are enjoying the channel. Appreciate the love!!
Portugal is such an amazing place! I did the Camino there a few years ago and fell in love. I'd for sure love to live there.
This is only my second video but I'm definitely loving you guys already :-). Thanks for being very transparent
Thank you! So glad you discovered us! :-)
This was actually helpful, especially since I don't have a degree, im young, nothing to lose, and no college (American prices are stupid expensive) thank you so much!
This is such a fantastic video! My wife and I love you guy’s channel and we have both been exploring this concept for a while. It is great to see people actually doing this. Keep making videos guys. They are greatly appreciated!
Thank you for the support and encouragement. It really means a lot. We'll keep the videos coming. Glad to hear you guys are considering working abroad. Deciding to work abroad was one of the best decisions we've made. We have many friends that made the move and are so happy they did. In fact, we are in Singapore this week visiting one of those friends. Thanks again!
I came across your channel about a month ago. All the content is great. I really like this video because of the more off the cuff interactions between the two of you. Like I said, I’ve enjoyed all your videos but this is the first one that made me want to comment. I like the more informal style. Keep up the good work
I just love how you guys interact with each other. Great quality video and great info. Keep'em coming!
Thank you! We have fun. A lot of laughs. In fact we have to remember to talk to the camera more and not so much to each other....lol. Thanks for the encouragement! We'll keep'em coming for sure!
I’ve been looking at Google and Amazon, but you guys gave great recommendations! Thank you!
Happy to help! Thanks Nisha!
Also Aupairing and working in hostels around the world are also options
Can you tell me more about the aupair jobs sis?
I once knew someone who previously worked as an Ambassador to the US State Dept. She mostly served in Asia or India or with the Aussies, prepping events for international visitors. Cool gig!! 😎
Sounds cool!!! :)
How did she get the gig? Where did she apply...
WWOOF is similar to another organisation called work away. Work away does the exact same thing, but on top of farming, there are other jobs as well, like people who just need help with their kids or in their garden, you can work in remote schools etc.
Thanks for adding that Hunter!!! Sounds like another great way to live rent-free! :)
@@OurRichJourney your welcome👍
Finally some digital nomad advice that follows the rules. Most so called digital nomad advocates on RUclips recommend finding any remote job in the US and just working abroad with it, which is absolutely not allowed due to the tax liabilities it creates for the employer. I like that you guys recommend the correct approach of an actual physical international assignment transfer to the foreign office. That is the correct way to do it. Either that or setting up your own LLC and taking C2C contracts. Automatically you have more credibility than 99% of people on RUclips giving bad or incorrect digital nomad advice.
I was in Japan under WWOOF before but now I'm looking for a paid job, not just free housing & meals.
I can't do job in teaching as English is not my native language but I'm going to try applying for other positions.
Thanks for sharing!!
That's awesome! Let us know where you end up :-)
This was a great video-very concrete actionable steps to take to make this a reality. Thank you
Wonderful! So glad that you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching and commenting! :)
Hey guys! Thanks for the the video. I’m 19, and my goal is to just get out there and explore life. :)
I’m looking to country hop! How can i acquire a job abroad with traveling 50% - I have no kids or pets, love people and have over 20 years of sales, public relations, customer service, running my own companies….
Building relationships is what I do Best!
Looking to leave the USA in December 2022 or early next year, for good.
Also open to renouncing citizenship if needed.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Ski Resorts are great! Prob best younger people like in their 20s. but you get cheap staff accommodation hooked up for you and you get a free ski/bike pass. Canada, States, Australia, Japan, ect.
Kendall_31 Great comment! Thank you for sharing!
I’m a licensed teacher in China and have been here for 5 years total. I used Teach Away to get several legit jobs-which I mention because going through local agents can be sketchy! Anyhow, I am so thrilled that you mentioned China. Many mention teaching in the Middle East, and I did, but the cost of living is so much higher that even with housing paid for, it’s a wash. China’s incredible and cheap public transportation makes living here car free so easy! I love knowing that I can provide a pleasant life for myself while saving towards early retirement, which was impossible when teaching while indebted in Florida. My debt will be gone soon and I will be well on my way!
Where did you get your TEFL certificate?
Y’all are amazing 🎉❤
Thank YOU! 💕
Y’all are adorable! Thank you for all of the information you share!

Will you make an updated video on working abroad & or other sources of income abroad. Thank you.
Very informative and inspiring. Can't wait to view future videos!
Thank you. We have some special videos lined up. Sneak peek....Free college is coming soon!
This is AN AWESOME VIDEO!!!! Great information!! God bless you both in your travels!!

That is so awesome. There are so many jobs abroad, I'm sure you wont have a problem finding one. Good luck in your search :-)
@@OurRichJourney Thank you 😁
Love your channel and want to thank you very much for sharing so much useful information! I realize you two are still young, but I as a 60 yr old, would love to hear how you might advise your parents generation for those seeking to achieve FIRE
My dad worked for GE and we lived in Brazil for 3 years when I was a kid. They paid for us to come back to the US.
Thank you so much for this video! I'm currently studying finance and want to live abroad when I graduate and this video gives me so many ideals about companies apply for to accomplish that
I love yall...i think this may just change my life...thank you guys 💘
OMG! Thank you so much! We are so happy to hear that! Going abroad changed our lives in so many positive ways. It was the best decision we made as a family. In fact since we went abroad our family members have also made the leap. Amon's brother found a job in Japan (with amazing benefits) and his Dad retired in Japan (after living in Spain for year). Everyone was so happy they made the move. Please keep us updated on your journey. Thanks again!
I love this channel. New subscriber! Thank you !!!

I'm so happy that you guys are here in the space, sharing such invaluable information, thank you!
I love this video! Thanknyou for sharing!! Ive always wanted to live abroad!! But ive never known what job to get besides teaching, now I know I have more options!! Youre an inspiration!!
this was a wonderful video! thanks for sharing!!
So glad you like it - thank you so much for the kind words! :)
Did you have to know Japanese or Spanish to work in Japan and Spain? I noticed many of the job postings for overseas jobs require language skills.
In addition to that, sometimes you have to deal with work visas. For instance, I am actually not from America but studied and worked in the US. The US is becoming increasingly difficult to work in because of the work visa restrictions. I imagine it may be easier for American citizens to get jobs both in America and in other countries than it is for people from some other countries to do the same.
In general I find that the process of getting jobs overseas is quite competitive with many people wanting jobs overseas. This is despite the fact that I have an MBA from a top 10 US business school as well as more than 15 years of work experience.
Emma Seow - We don't speak Japanese or Spanish and our jobs don't require additional language skills. I agree with your point about competition - some jobs can be quite competitive. I think it just depends on the particular job, the location, the employer - so many factors. Good luck in your job search!
@@OurRichJourney Thanks for the reply! That's helpful to know. Thanks also for the website providing us with information about jobs at schools overseas. If you could post other links to job boards for international jobs or other sources for looking for overseas jobs I think that would be helpful for many viewers! (Besides the actual company websites and Linkedin which most viewers would probably be aware of already.)
This is another great video. I'm thinking about moving out of the country and looking for companies hiring abroad. So, thanks for this video.
Lovely! Which one of these 6 options that you presented. Have you experienced on a personal level?
You are both so informative since I found your videos, I'm watching them all the time. Keep it up there wonderful.
Wow! Thank you for watching Lori!!!
Great video. I have put this idea on the back burner for 2018, while I get rid of debt and increase skills. Hopefully in 2019/2020, I can pick up again. We want to live in Bali, or stay for longer periods of time.
Thank you! Bali is an amazing place. We have friends that retired early (40s) to Bali. They love it there.There are also people that work from Bali because they've been able to find jobs that allow them to work virtually or they've created an online business. However you move to Bali, please come back and share your journey. I'm sure it will inspire others. Thanks again!
This was probably the best video for working abroad! Thank you so much so many places I wouldn’t of even thought of!!
I’m studying abroad and about to graduate in Europe but would love to stay out here, would I need to go back to the USA for interviews for most of these jobs or could I just try it from here? Thank you so much for this insight, loved the video and loved you guys!
Thank you for the question. Most jobs we've interviewed for abroad have been via phone or skype. So no need to be in the US. We interviewed for our Japan job while in Spain :-)
Our Rich Journey that’s amazing! Thank you! I’ll start now before graduation in a few months, I would love to stay in Europe for work. Traveling here is much easier and so many options and super cheap compared to back home! One thing I’ve wondered though, do most of these follow mainly European laws of work or American standards (such as pay, holidays...paid holidays and such?) either way it’s sounding better and better out here with health insurance and all! Thank you again! :)
Wow! Never heard of any of this. Thanks for researching this info.
Amazing video and information
Thank you! We hope it gave you some good ideas - we LOVE working and living abroad! :)
Very useful video will keep in mind as I graduate in a couple of months
Awesome! We loved working abroad!
Great video, thanks! Just wondering how can somebody find a job overseas online since all companies require you to have work authorization in the country at the time of application?
This was very helpful! Me and my wife have been trying to know how to work in Bali.
Thank you, that is VERY helpful. Greetings from Cameroon!
WOW! Cameroon!!! Thank you for the love :-)
@@OurRichJourney Awww, thanks to you, guys! Also, coud you help me please? I lost my fiancé recently and I want to start over in Asia or any other english-speaking country. My concern is that I've been unemployed since 2014, freelancing here and there on small IT projects (building Access apps), but nothing fancy. I have an international professional background (finance, project management), having worked in France, Switzerland, Cameroon, in very diverse roles and was helping my fiancé on his company, mainly on administrative tasks. Do you think that that 5 year gap would be a problem to get hired? I am 37, bilingual french/english and hold a french citizenship. I would really appreciate your advice and thank you very much. Btw, I love Japan, never been there but I took a few japanese classes when I was in college in France. Hope you're enjoying it there.
Any advice or somebody who has anxiety, lacking social skills plus up against all odds with nobody to lean on? Hopeful but way stressed it's hard...to know what's possible&don't know what's possible & don't have a clue of what I could be good at or useful in. 27 and only have a h.s. diploma.
Our advice...stay positive and surround yourself with positive people. And when negative people say you cant do it, use that as fuel to prove them wrong. Try not to focus on the challenges but rather focus on finding a solution. What are you passionate about? A college degree is not required to be successful. You can make your own path without one or you can go get one now (its not too late). Christina went to law school at 34! Most of all TRY TRY TRY and dont take no for an answer.
Hang in there. There are more of us than you know. It is difficult, however we got this! Keep being smart and knowing its possible.
You have a diploma! That’s great already. Just stay smart, positive and you got this! Don’t worry, 27 is still very young. You’ll find a way!

I currently work part-time for FedEx and may possibly go fulltime. Do you know if companies do transfers to positions internally?
I WWOOFed in Ghana in 2018 for 2 weeks. One of the greatest experiences of my life. We got to experience the authentic culture of the nation while living for free in exchange for assisting the farmer with their operations.
Highly recommend!
What Job please
What part of Ghana were you in?
You both are awesome.
Thank you :D
One ressource that I think Americans should tap in is American embassies or consulates around the World, specially in countries with very low cost of life. They pay you an American rate, they pay moving fees, they make sure you're safe and educated about the place, they offer safe housing, sometimes free, they enroll your children in a local American school. The cost of living is so low that you could save up to 90% of your income and still live like a king. That's still under the government jobs category but more specific. They need from a Janitor to an administrator, translator, secretary etc...
LOVE this comment! Thank you for sharing! :)
I have various friends/relatives working for american embassies. Just a caution, application process/background check for consulor can take upto two years, you may not get your pick on country placement, and many of the positions require you to already have work permit for the country.
Hello, thanks for sharing. It was interesting
Thank you so much!
