Greetings amigos :)
I've been traveling around South America since January last year (2016).
Flew to Argentina from Europe.........and thus began my work-adventure. Worked as a waiter/kitchen-help in Buenos Aires for 3 months. Then, on to Chile, where I worked in a grocery-store for 2 months.
Next stop was Bolivia (handyman in a local hotel).......then Brazil.........then Peru, Ecuador, and finally Colombia.
Point is: I do odd jobs here and there, while I travel. Never official. It's all done off the books.
I hardly ever get paid, because, right off the bat, I tell potential employers: don't want pay. All I want is food and board, in return for me working. Most of the time, they are only too happy to take me on, albeit temporarily.
Right now, I'm working as a deckhand on sailboats, at the Cartagena marina. Been here since April. I love it here, but my 3 months are almost up.
Hence...........the reason for my post. I'm heading to Panama next.
What are my chances of finding a job in Panama? Something off the books, for a few months? Not looking to get paid. Just room and board.
If I can't find anything in Panama, I'll move on to Costa Rica...........or maybe Mexico.
Gracias )
