Hello guys! I am one of the many it seems heading to BsAs soon. The start of 2010 to be precise for at least a one year sabatical. Admittedly I am fairly obsessed with Argentina, 3 trips in 6 months.
I have thought about doing voluntary work in exchange for board & lodgings to minimise my outgoings for a year. I know eg I could teach poor kids English in a school in BsAs in return for lodgings. My aim is to have a lot of fun & learn Spanish. Of course I'd prefer paid work but in reading all the posts on this site, one thing I have realised is not to take anything for granted!!
I have more than 15 years experience working in private client investments for major UK companies. I am in France currently working for a worldwide bank. My mother tongue in English & I am also fluent in French. I also have my TEFL certificate. I have made a few inquiries which are looking promising but if they don't work out, I need my fall back position.
Anyways, any suggestions workwise from anyone?
Also, are the authorities ok if I arrive at the aiport with a one way ticket? Plus what is the best way for transfering money ie not taking out cash advances on the credit card at huge costs!!
I am so looking forward to it & to meeting some of you at some point!!
ciao
