This can be a good option as summertime unemployment has increased because the numbers of youth-friendly vacancies have declined, reports Tuscaloosa News.
According to Northeastern University, US, levels of summertime employment for the 16 to 24 age range have dropped since 2000 and only 33 per cent of youngsters were employed last summer.
One option that a young person could consider is undertaking a TEFL course and train in how to teach English abroad.
Jobs are available to people as young as 20 and demand is highest in China and south east Asia.
TEFL-qualified Americans can teach in a classroom with primary school children or adults in the major cities.
Most employers provide a salary and accommodation, which gives youngsters enough spare cash to explore the new surrounding culture.
TEFL courses vary in price and can cost as little as £143.20. The course combines online learning and classroom time.
