Another great way to have an experience abroad that is not only free, it pays - TEACH ENGLISH! You can do it in East Asia (and maybe South America?) with only a bachelor's degree, in anything, and that's just for the work visa purposes. I taught for two years in Japan, and made more money than I would've with any job at home after my undergrad. Some European countries require a certification course, but if you want to do it, it isn't a bad investment, and with that certification you get paid even better and can go anywhere.

Of course, you do kind of have to save some money for start up costs - the flight over, deposit on an apartment, and such, so the movement itself is still expensive, but once the paychecks come in, life is very good.

I did a little research on this and none of the programs I found paid much at all. :(

Plus startup costs are definitely an issue for me, especially with student debt.

The Jet Programme (in Japan) pays the most. It's pretty good money for a fresh grad.

If you teach English in Korea or Taiwan you'll make good money... relative to Korea or Taiwan. Living expenses there are a lot lower. You won't be saving much but you will live well while you are there.

If you teach English in China you can live like a king but your money is worth nothing once you leave.

A lot of these programs also subsidize your apartment/living expenses, so keep that in mind, too. I hear in Korea they almost always pay for your apartment. When I was on the Jet Programme in Japan, my apartment was subsidized, so I only paid about 300USD/mo in rent. I paid of my student loans traveled a bunch, and saved up some money. I would recommend it if you want to ride the gravy train. Just don't expect it to be a meaningful or fulfilling experience.

I'd really like to go to Latin America, if possible! I want to improve my Spanish. I looked up programs for Costa Rica (where I did my study abroad) but didn't come up with a whole lot that would actually make me any money. I'm ok with living day-to-day, but my debt isn't gonna just go away, and I'd still need to save up for plane tickets and startup expenses.
