SWAP is an organization (Students.Work.Abroad.Program) that will help an individual to live and work in another country for as long as they want (well as long as the visa is valid for - in most cases, its a year). They have programs for students and non-students and basically you pay them a fee and that will give you your visa, two nights accomodation in the city when you arrive, an office to use as a mailing address, access to the internet, etc at this office, and inside tips on jobs and places to live when you actually arrive. My boss used them when he was first out of university and highly recomends them. I'll most likely be going this route, but I was just curious if anyone else had done this before....
