Hello all,
The first forum I made worked so well, I thought I'd give it another go for yet another traveling topic! In the fall, I am planning on going to Budapest, Hungary for about 6-8 months to teach English. I am working on finding a way to get TEFL certified sometime soon, but if I don't have the time to do it before I leave, I will be getting certified while I'm in Budapest.
With that said, I have nothing to do from when I graduate to when I would be leaving for Hungary! I want to work in order to make and save money, but I also want to travel and gain experience teaching. So, I have been thinking of scheduling a short trip abroad to teach English during the summertime. I have been researching online looking for programs for students/recent graduates that allow the student to travel abroad (anywhere) for just a few short weeks (3-4), teach in a school and get paid for it. I have found a few, but am wondering if any of you know of any great programs like this. I'm sure an application process is necessary to even get into these programs, but I am willing to apply wherever.
If any of you could be of any help, I would greatly appreciate it! Hope to hear from you soon and thanks so much for your time.

This board doesn't get a lot of traffic, but you might try reposting in the Lounge or on the forums for the continents that you are interested in. Your question will get more exposure that way and hopefully someone who has some good info will see it.
Will you have a visa to stay that long in Hungary, and to work there? Hungary is a Schengen country so Schengen rules apply. You can stay 90 days in any 180 without a visa in the entire Schengen zone, and you may not work during that time.
