I do not have a degree,I have travel & tourism qualification also Alevel English.I have worked within business travel and have passport/visa experience. I would love to work for an adventure travel company or something similar that would perhaps also involve travelling abroad. I am bored in an office and need to get into work that I am interested in, my passion is travel. I know most of these types of companies require staff to be well travelled, I am going to Costa Rica for an adventure holiday in October; other than that I have not travelled much, the usual -USA, Europe, have not travelled extensively. Are there any companies that take on less experienced staff and provide training etc? Any other job suggestions also welcome. I need to have some excitement/variation in my working life!I am very bored in my current job!

The British education system actively encourages education tourists in higher education – Those who pay the full fees for their college level education. (British nationals are subsidised).

The education "industry" brings in 10.4 billion pounds worth of revenues (US$20 billion) from overseas students who study in the UK. There was even a BBC report dedicated to this phenomena, the link to which is provided below.
