Waldorf recruitment

This is for my brother who went to college in September and my friends all over the world who helped me along the way.

When I was a child, I always felt that my hometown county was very big, as if there was only one county in the world. I didn't know there was another place in the world called "provincial capital" until I heard my grandmother mention it. Later, it was not only the provincial capital, but also the colorful northern Guangzhou, the place where teachers used to study abroad-Britain, Xinmatai, which backpackers love to go to now, and Japan, which was beautiful and lonely as a teenager.

Now that the traffic is developed, there are more and more places that can be reached by high-speed rail. Even translators can take you to communicate all over the world with portable WIFI. Unlike the first time I went to Xiamen alone, I had to take a train, a bus and a ferry to get to Gulangyu Island. Traveling to Thailand with my girlfriend for the first time in my early twenties was an adventure. Everything is fresh, even when he comes back, he is still happy and proud.

I've always been curious about the world, and I hope you are too. After all, the world is so big, how do you know there are other possibilities in life if you don't go out for a walk? And you, I am just a very, very small individual. No matter how big and far the imagination is, it is not as relieved and happy as seeing it with your own eyes.

I hope you, not only my brother, but also all my friends who read this article. If you like going out, go out as much as possible and see the world under limited conditions. Whether you are eighteen or forty-eight, believe me, it's never too late. You have a chance.

Here comes the dry goods!

First, study abroad

If you are a schoolmaster or have a rich family, studying abroad may be the best for you. Moreover, many countries, such as France, Germany and many places in northern Europe, are free of tuition fees or only charge fees every semester. Doing coolies can even cover the living expenses. Furthermore, there are some international exchange programs in universities, which you can look at carefully. Learn the language well, brush it well and prepare early.

Second, work.

The scope of work is too wide. Some of them are studying locally, so they stay and work. Have a plenty of overseas recruitment, if the strength is excellent, the company will also solve the visa problem. The above two ways of going abroad are generally recognized by the public, and I don't have much experience and comments. Now let me introduce several other "non-mainstream" ways to go abroad.

Before introducing, I want to export a concept: what is the purpose of going abroad?

For example, my earliest purpose of going abroad was actually to learn a foreign language, understand preschool education and travel to other countries. But after several years of "volunteer experience" abroad, going abroad will make me feel that it will be more meaningful and fulfilling to live with the local people, understand the real local customs, or help the local people with a little personal strength.

Third, the way to work (volunteer) abroad (this is the key point and the essence of the article)

1. working holiday visa (working holiday visa)

At present, Chinese mainland working holiday visas have been opened by NZ, which are generally issued to people aged between 18-30. Quotas are issued once a year. In particular, the number of places in Australia is limited, with an IELTS score of 5.5, and 5,000 people can apply every year, which requires luck. Many local jobs are farm work, such as picking blueberries, kiwifruit and handling fish. But with luck, I also read on the Internet that I got a job in a cafe or something. The advantage is that after a year's working holiday, you may be able to improve your English or find opportunities to study and work in the local area. What I know is that in Germany, many young people 18 years old will also apply for working holidays, and the most frequent places are Canada and Australia.

2. Camphill Community Life (Camphill Community Life)

I have more experience in this field. I'll post two websites in Britain and Germany first:

In short, I am looking for the country I want to go to and the right family. My main job is to help with housework and take care of the children at home. I don't know much about this, but I met four mutually beneficial students in German class: Madagascar, Colombia, Croatia and South Africa. Most of them are young girls and do only housework. The advantage is also stability, with pocket money every month and free German classes on a regular basis. All the people I know stayed after a year of mutual education, some continued their studies, and some continued to look for jobs. In short, they live a very full life.

To end with the words of my good friend Katie: whatever you do is an experience, as long as you want to do it. Don't wait until you are old, there is no story to tell your granddaughter!
