A Guide to Working Abroad in Central America
Locations
Central America is bordered by Mexico to the north, Colombia to the south, and the Caribbean isles to the east. It is a region of incredible biodiversity, containing over seven percent of the world’s variety of flora and fauna in just 0.1 percent of Earth’s landmass. It is safe to say that you will not be underwhelmed by nature and wildlife outside of your work in Central America.
There are seven nations that comprise Central America, which combined host a total population of about 43 million people. From north to south, Central America includes Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. With 14 million citizens, Guatemala is Central America’s largest country, by a significant margin. Belize, the smallest of the group, is the only country whose national language is English, while all others speak Spanish.
You can find jobs in Central America in both rural and urban areas. However, the largest cities tend to hold the largest number of job opportunities; some of the largest cities in the region include Guatemala City, Panama City, San Jose, Tegucigalpa, San Salvador, and Managua. Rural versus urban living in Central America will present an extremely different experience with its own unique set of challenges, so make sure to weigh all the pros and cons before deciding where to look for work abroad!
