looking to move to Ecuador in January

Post new topic

Hey guys, I'm a 24 year old American with brief EFL teaching experience in Brasil (but no certification), and I'm looking to move to Ecuador in January.  I'm currently looking for work as an English teacher or something in the tourism industry.  I have a university degree in Journalism, speak Spanish and Portuguese, and would be a good fit for anything to do with writing, including social media, translation, and blogging.  I'm struggling to get much interested from any of the schools or tour operators I've contacted.  Any expats out there with advice for someone open to ANY way to support myself in Ecuador?  Thanks in advance.
