There is really a lot to say and share, but I want to keep it short and to the point.
I have worked as a global travel concierge for ultra-high net worth individuals. Feel free to message me if you have any questions.
If you are old enough for a holiday working visa, the HWV can be a good alternative middle ground between travel and financial balance.
Of course, you have to look for work in your chosen destination, but you can also experience "local" life if that's what you're interested in. However, this is more applicable if you plan to apply to a country where the salary is enough to cover your nearby travel expenses.
