When my contract expires in early December, I am going back to the states for a couple of years. I'd like to come back around December of 2010 for a winter camp, and hopefully a few months after that. Any ideas for what jobs I can do in that short amount of time?

Can I get airfare for a winter camp? Maybe that school will let me sign a 4 month contract... What options do I have for wanting to stay for a short period of time?

Unlikely although some, less than half, pay more with the idea that the extra money will be spent of travel. During the summer the flights are expensive and hard to come by confounding things even more.

Now I remember. You get enough money for a visa run to Japan from Korea.

they won't pay your airfare for a short term contract

you would be better off going to japan or taiwan where the visas are a lot less stringent for short term work i think

Met 5 people doing work for a government company and they got their flights paid for. I am not sure what they are getting paid, but they seemed very happy with it. It sounds like it is possible to get airfare paid, but maybe not that common.

i got flown over for a 2 week winter camp a couple of years ago. round-trip flight was paid, all food and accomodations were provided, and a fat envelope of canadian cash was in my hand at the end.

I was just checking out the G4F website and you can get an H-1 visa that wil allow you to come into the country and earn wages of a short term duration. Click the link below for the information for this particular visa issuance...

G4F

Hope this helps answer your question..

Some will some won't. Why are you asking for 2010? That's so far away. I highly doubt you keep plans months in advancced, let alone 3 years in advanced.
