I am a broke college student trying to move to Latin America; how do i do it?

I am a broke college student trying to move to Latin America; how do i do it?
Preferably Bolivia or Argentina. I've thought maybe volunteering but it is ridiculously over priced! teaching English abroad is something i would love to do, but i think it may be difficult to find an opening. I really want to move over there for like a year but it is starting to feel impossible. any suggestions?

I have been to Argentina and Brazil. I enjoy going to Brazil. The weather is excellent and people are very friendly. People in Argentina think they are the best people in the world and they are a pain..

Can an Australian take a working holiday in Argentina or Peru?


Can an Australian take a working holiday in Argentina or Peru?
I am a 23 year old student, and I'm considering taking 6 months or a year of out of the course im doing to work in South America. I have been to South America twice in my life already so I know what to expect in both countries. My Spanish is.... intermediate. Not a beginner at all, but I'm years away from mastering the language.

Technically, if you want to get a job in Peru or Argentina you need a work visa. You usually need to have some skill or qualification and need to have a formal job offer. Otherwise, you would be working illegally. Nevertheless, as in any other country in the world, you could work for cash if you find a job that pays under the table.

I'm from Argentina, and you don't need a visa to work there, you just need a "cuil" isn't too hard to get it, and don't worry about the language, because in Buenos Aires there are people from all over the World, you can speak in English and people will understand you.
3 :
Short answer: Yes. As Sergio already pointed out, even without a working visa you may be able to get a job. However some of the easy jobs are not really well paid. Probably one of the best (and easy) options for you would be to teach English but you would need an acceptable Spanish.

Is there any way to watch the current season of Lost in Argentina?


Is there any way to watch the current season of Lost in Argentina?
I am a college student spending a semester abroad in Buenos Aires. I'm hopelessly addicted to Lost, and don't want to fall behind on Season 5 (especially because I'm afraid people will spoil it for me!) I'm pretty sure that the ABC site won't let you watch it from overseas. Are there any other websites where I could keep caught up?
