FAQ


"How much does traveling cost?"

Cost of living(rent, utilities, wifi, groceries) is $500 USD per month for most countries, $1000 for most others.


"Health care and insurance?"

Health care and insurance are both pennies on the US dollar abroad via medical tourism


"What about visas?"

Usually don't need them, the ones you need are almost all entirely online now, a fifteen minute form and nominal fee that is offset by the drastically lower cost of living in that country.


"How do you make money while abroad?"

Any job that nets you $500 a month works. There are over 2 billion English students globally right now, so native English speakers have lucked into a guaranteed job on or offline.


"What qualifications do I need as an English teacher?"

Some countries and schools require a TEFL certificate or prefer candidates with an associate's degree depending on the position, but if you want to teach English, all you need is to be a fluent English speaker.

Harvesting animals for food is appropriate and natural.

No misinformation, remember. You may ask community members questions but are not allowed to make up their answers for them.

Humans are an animal, under what conditions would you find it acceptable to harvest humans for food? Feel free to give a difference answer but I'm going to preempt three common responses I get: 1. its never ok to kill and eat a human even when you're starving: then what is so different about cows pigs chickens that makes it ok to do to them, when we have thousands of edible plant species, 2: its ok to eat humans if they are already dead and you're starving: ok then is that the situation you find yourself in w/ regards to eating other species? 3: its ok to kill and eat humans in a survival situation in the name of self defense: ok again are you in a life or death situation, are there not bread rice beans pasta fruit and veg for you to get nutrients from?

"are there not bread rice beans pasta fruit and veg?"

In the life or death survival situations you are making up?

No, there are not.

this is a misunderstanding of the responses, the question of "when is cannibalism justified" is used here to draw parallels to when eating flesh of other species is justified, if you wouldnt do it to a human in the same situation why would you do it to a cow pig chicken fish duck goose etc

That isn't a misunderstanding, you just didn't get the answer you wanted.
