Travelling is a wonderful way to learn about the world and its peoples. And when you are young and free from the burdens of adult life (demanding career and stressful family matters) travelling may become your favourite past time.
All of this sounds great but where do you get the funding? The air fares, accommodation fees and visa expenses can be less attractive than the prospect of international travel. There is one very attractive way to see the world, learn the culture and the language of the people and all of that – free of charge. In fact you will be paid to experience all those things. Have we gone mad? No, we are introducing you to au-pairing.
An au pair is a person who travels to a different country to help with the children. As a bonus you get to travel around the country and learn a foreign language. Travel expenses are sometimes included in your package and you get pocket your negotiated amount of pocket money. Your purpose is not only helping with the children (by the way your babysitting time is strictly regulated) but also teaching the whole family about your native culture.
Au pair relationships can become strong friendships and your host family will want to visit you in Minsk. Then you can invite them to Belarus, sort accommodation through Minsk rentals and show them what our country is all about. So if travelling on a budget is your dream and passion, start planning your au-pair career.
