Today I was browsing volunteering jobs abroad. I think this opportunity alone is enough to fulfill my dreams. I want to travel abroad. I want to serve the poor. At the same time, I can make money through it. So, I will like to apply for it.
However, there's only one problem and that is my fitness issue.

My boyfriend is doing that. Although monetary wise you’ll be spending more than you’d be earning if you consider the airfare. But hey you’re helping people and travelling and saving money on board and lodging.
I’d want to experience it in the future.

Better to start rebuilding your physical fitness, try running as sport, maybe it can help.

Are there work arounds for your fitness issue? Something you can do? Or if it is due to issues out side your control, maybe they could exempt you?
I hope you get to, it would fulfill so many of your dreams

DO you get paid? Well, good luck with that. I know it's not going to be easy.

No, I will not get any payment. On the contrary, I have to pay them. However, they will give me food and accommodation.

I think it would be a great life experience to volunteer abroad.

If I were young I would love to do that. Now we just travel when we want and we are retired.

Well still look. There may be something to suit any restrictions you may have.

I encountered that offer. An offer from colombo sri lanka, they need native teachers, for a salary of 120 usd a month. I was like, thinking, if they needed english teachers, why were they so choosy? Native teachers hardly come to countries like china and japan, how much more colombo?

Yes, you're right. I have also applied for teaching jobs. Don't know whether they will consider me.
