Czech Republic

Central Europe is where you'll find the Czech Republic. You can't go wrong with the lovely castle capital of the world. There are 20 sites here that have been designated as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO.

Students and teachers alike should consider the Czech Republic as a potential destination. Monthly expenses for housing and food are $350-$750 on average, according to FundMyTravel blog. In addition to a monthly salary of up to $1,300, teachers may also get housing and other perks from their employers.

Portugal

Portugal's popularity may be attributed to its mild temperature, delicious cuisine, and beautiful beaches. According to this year's Global Peace Index, Portugal is one of the safest countries to live in.

Portugal's low prices in areas like housing and public transportation make it an attractive option for those who want to experience Western European magnificence without breaking the bank. Only the seafood and wine can be the most expensive parts of your meal, though.

Costa Rica

With monthly prices hovering about $500 and a generally safe atmosphere, Costa Rica is one of the cheapest and safest locations to live in the world. Volunteers and instructors will find that their dollars go far in Costa Rica because of the country's tropical environment, high quality of life, and delicious cuisine.

With experience and certification, teachers may make up to $1,000 monthly. Meanwhile, ecotourism, tree planting, and trail construction are just a few of the areas where volunteers are needed in this, one of the world's most sustainable nations that draws millions of visitors annually.

Panama

Panama, like neighboring Costa Rica in Central America, is often regarded as one of the world's safest and least expensive destinations to settle down permanently, as per a report by Global Citizen Solutions.

The quality of the healthcare system is a major factor to think about while deciding where to live overseas. Panama has a very reasonable and high-quality healthcare system. Additionally, regardless of your age, you may easily get health insurance in Panama.

Malaysia

If you're looking to make Southeast Asia your permanent home, Malaysia is one of the best options. It's a developed nation where the cost of living is reasonable, and crime is minimal. Studying in Malaysia is a smart move because of the country's excellent standard of education and low cost of living.

Vietnam

As far as foreigners go, Vietnam is among the safest and cheapest areas to settle down. The standard of living is high, and the cost of living is low.

Due to the great demand for English teachers and the high salaries (up to $2,000 per month with the correct credentials and job placement), many individuals go to Vietnam to work in this field. Many organizations in the fields of education, women's rights, and healthcare are always looking for volunteers.
