My brother is in a hospital in Panama and I've been making tons of phone calls and was wondering if anyone knew how much per minute I'm paying. Thanks!...
I am going to be in Central/South America for the summer--maybe Panama City or Quito. Where could I live for 6-8 weeks that woudl be cheap but also safe?...
I only have a week and will spend two days in BA and the rest by the coast.
Would like somewhere where there are some good walks /cultural activity + beach :-)...
Ok so whenever someone asks a question about Costa Rica, some random guy named Hernan (what kind of name is that anyway) puts them and the country down. Has anyone else noticed that? Well its rude ...
It seems to be a pretty place with lots of adventurous things to do. We are just not sure if it is out of our price range only wanting to spend 3 to 4 thousand. Any Help?...
Your best bet if you don't know Spanish would be to teach English. You may get a job like that especially at the CVA (Centro Venezolano Americano / Venezuelan American Center) http://www.cva.org.ve/main_english.htm But also in other places such as the British Council http://www.britishcouncil.org/es/venezuela or maybe even at many of the private schools across the country. Private English classes/tutoring is also an option as I'm sure many Venezuelans would prefer an American teacher.
(Here's a direct link to an internship at CVA http://www.cva.org.ve/internship.htm )
Other than teaching English, you could probably also find something either directly at the US Embassy in Caracas http://caracas.usembassy.gov/ or through them.
If you do know Spanish however, then you could get a job pretty much anywhere (except those that require a Venezuelan degree such as the ones in the field of Medicine, etc).

I would suggest contacting the Venezuelan Embassy. Go to http://www.embavenez-us.org/
They should be able to help you.

That's quite difficult. I know some American companies in Venezuela that bring trainers or simply employees to work there for a period of time and they of course pay in US dollars, but just any job? I don't know, you should be able to speak Spanish first, and to earn Venezuelan bolivars is not quite a good idea financially.
