:help: I'm looking into a job that's transferable, what I mean is one that I can take anywhere in the world, as and when the mood takes me! But where to start?!
I'm currently working in recruitment with people who are unemployed, trying to get them back into work.
I've done teaching before, but as yet have no formal qualifications.
I've thought about construction - maybe plastering/ tiling or brickwork, but can and will i be able to earn enough from this?
Answers/ suggestions all greatly appreciated.
I could have put this in the employment section, but I know more people check this section and I'm thinking I may get more ideas here!!

lol :lol: Liking the suggestions neeeeek!!
Warming to the suggestions of prostitution and drug dealing! Guessing that would be most fun in Muslim countries or Thailand - I hear drug dealing goes down quite well with the Thais!
Faking refs for hair dressing could also be a lot of fun!!
Pole dancing?! lol

Depending on where you want to go (and how long you want to stay), teaching English is a pretty good way of bouncing around places - especially in Asia - places like Korea, Japan and China have a very high demand, and don't tend to require formal qualifications. "physical" jobs like construction are always available, but tend to have very low wages.

Strange you should say that j00ce, I've actually been to s.korea teaching twice!
Today I'm thinking counselling/ hypnotherapy/ advice/ guidance and maybe even a CELTA on the side! Wow I'll be a busy girl studying for all those but worth it i think if it works?!
