Obviously a pretty significant commitment, lots of logistics etc, but it could be an amazing thing to do until jobs exist again.

I'm thinking about it if I don't manage to get a job this year.

# Lovely thought, thanks Z
Unfortunately my situation would require I sell everything and start again when I got back (my aunt is my closest relative, and not much help).

One question though;

"We offer a range of Youth for Development roles across many professional skill areas including education, business & IT, communications & fundraising, community & social development, and HIV/AIDS."

How is HIV/AIDS a professional skill area? How is it professional to get sick?
