Join the Army or the peace corps..

As far as I know it's hard to get a temp visa(?) to work in the US, if that's what you're talking about. I'd just look for a site specializing in temp work that involves travel. Other than that basic advice I wouldn't have more to offer.

After uni I'm considering moving to another country but if your not happy where you are then go a head.
Though relocating can be tedious especially getting work and Visa's and so on.

it doesnt have to be the US, could be anywhere and it could just be for a month or so, just to do something else:)

my avatar... i will fight you for it

What qualification do you have?

3yrds of economics and worked after graduation as a region manager for a company

You can be one of those guys that they transport things from one place to another mostly body parts and things that need to be taken somewhere i a hurry. There called mor... something like that. You should look into that they have you travel all around the world and its free! You do get a few days to yourself in the place but i think after 2 days you have to go back for another delivery job. Basically you will be a delivery boy that might help save lives.


Does anyone know what job i'm talking about?

The fat guy in rat race that was delivering the heart.

Role play with ur gf.

I did this after I graduated University. I went backpacking through New Zealand and Fiji for 4 months. It was an absolute blast, best time of my life. I learned so much, like how to do stuff on my own without anyone to fall back on, you gain independance and all those people from all over the world you've been playing SRO with, you get to meet them in rl. New Zealand rocks for travelling too, most beautiful country I've ever seen and I've travelled a fair bit, so many different things to do in such a small place. When I did, my university offered a program called SWAP, it was Student Work Abroad Program, I'm sure you can find something like that. You can do it cheaply staying in hostels. NZ had some of the nicest i've ever seen, better than someplaces hotels. SWAP helped me set up a visa, job hunting and an overseas bank account, so I could use their ATMs, not easy to do when your not a citizen. Fiji had everything, in my trip there I swam with dolphins, bungy jumped, skied on a volcano, surfed, kayaked, boogie boarded down a white water river and partied huge almost every night. Did a bunch of odd jobs, bartended for a bit, cleaned rooms, whatever I needed to pick up some money. Met some really nice friends. It just rocked. That's my advice, check for something like SWAP, or TravelCuts is good for helping do those kind of trips.
