FAQ


"How much does traveling cost?"

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


"Health care and insurance?"

Health care and insurance abroad are both pennies on the US dollar for the highest quality of medical care


"What about visas?"

You usually don't need them; when necessary, visas are almost all entirely online: a fifteen minute e-form and nominal fee offset in your first day by the drastically lower cost of living abroad.


"How do you make money while abroad?"

Any job that nets you $500+ a month works. There are almost 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.

Raw, sliced salami for $9.

Always wild to stop by the states.

You miiiiight want to put that back.

Boars Head has recently had several e coli outbreaks due to poor sanitation at their meat production plants.

Thanks for the warning, that chaff was never making it to checkout.

Not sure what you're showing us.

Ok, so Boar's Head sells a prepackaged salami they call Charcuterie.

And?

They also sell small packages of their cheeses pre-sliced. Those cost considerably more per pound than if you asked the deli to slice it for you. I've sometimes bought them when in a hurry or on a road trip.

The same deli will also sell other brands of meats and cheese, typically 10% to 30% cheaper than Boar's Head.

And if you go to a different store, they'll have other things!

The contrast to actual meaning of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charcuterie is part of the point, I imagine.

They are not from the United States. They were quipping about something they think is funny or odd, because they wouldn't see it back home.

I'm from the US; you're absolutely right about the rest!
