Does anyone has any experience of teaching English as a foreign language abroad, either as a teacher or assistant?

I'm 23 and have been drinking my life away since I graduated from University two years ago. I like my friends and its good to have an active social life, but working an unfulfilling job just to get bladdered at the weekend, wash, rinse and repeat isn't enough. I'm fascinated by the world and want to go out and be part of it.

Thus far, I've applied to government supported schemes such as JET (inevitably) and a British Council position in China, but I've decided I will be out of the UK by my 24th birthday, or with a solid plan to leave. I want to live in SE Asia, but not Japan exclusively - I'm quite open and want to send out as many applications as I can.

Any advice from those more experienced, stories or suggestions for other (reliable) options would be greatly appreciated - I've yet to apply to any private companies such as Interac (formerly Nova) as many have a poor record for screwing ALTs out of pay, taxing you twice over or for contracts disappearing, leaving you stranded abroad without work.
