On a wet, grey and wintry day, we often dream of working in sunnier climes. For English speakers, this dream is becoming ever easier to realize, with the continuing dominance of English as a means of international communication and the rising global demand for native English speakers.

Jobs in the Sun is a unique country-by-country assessment of work opportunities for anyone considering a gap year before or after university, those seeking a career-break combining both travel and work experience, or those who wish to emigrate permanently. Covering vacation work, paid employment, setting up a business and voluntary job opportunities, this book also examines the issues surrounding residency regulations – such as tax and visas – and concludes with useful addresses and other travel information.

Profiled countries include: the United States, Canada, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Spain, Portugal, France and Greece.
