Salvador, Brazil is a great place to teach English if you love dancing, food, and history. As the country’s Afro-Brazilian epicenter, Salvador is filled with festive nightlife, but also has a lot going on during the day. Many teachers love the fact that great beaches are easily accessible, and that the culture is authentic and genuine. Finding a job isn’t too hard, but you will want to make sure you land something that pays well, and covers living expenses.
It should be noted that this city can be a bit dangerous, especially at night, so come prepared with street smarts. Shayna fell in love with Brazil, finally settled in Salvador for its connections to Capoeira, and shares her adventure story here.
