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.

Great haul
Thanks, there are an absurd selection of instant noodles, so I got three, and then my friend instantly told me I should have gotten a different brand haha, so I guess I'll have to try them also.
You know what's really interesting though? Indonesians put the boiling water into the cup of noodles for 3 minutes but then they poke a small hole at the top and drain out the water and then mix in the seasoning, so you get a much stronger flavor and the noodles don't go crazy mushy after one extra minute in the soup.
I don't think I've ever come across that practice before, and I eat instant noodles very rarely, but I definitely like this preparation method much more than leaving the water in after the noodles are boiled.
I used to make "free" lunch at work from the frees snacks. Shin noodles, cheese sticks, and some eggs dropped into the hot water with the noodles. You unlocked one of my core memories. Good times
Ha nice. I didn't get any vegetables or eggs, but I did throw in some of the yakiniku I marinated in each cup. Makes it taste a little more real.
A little.
The noodle cups, the pfas coating that leeches into it really makes the taste pop I am sure.
Ha, yeah, the pfas really help the processed salt slide smoothly into my intestines.
