Preparing to teach abroad often means juggling a mountain of logistics—from securing visas to finding housing and booking flights. It’s a lot to handle, and your to-do list can quickly feel endless. But amid the chaos, one crucial factor quietly supports the entire process: your credit score.

Teaching Abroad: How a Strong Credit Score Helps With Relocation and Travel Planning

Hello, we are a group of students from Coe College working together on a project with Wandering Educators. Our goal is to share multiple study abroad experiences while focusing on a specific aspect of each person’s abroad experience. The following articles focus on these topics that you may find interesting and important before you travel and study abroad, as well as give you a reason to give it a shot. 

 
Whilst law-breaking tourists are undoubtedly in the minority, and I am confident that no Wandering Educators fall within their ranks, they still remain a key component in discussions about the relationship between tourism and crime. Whether these individuals fall foul of the law through the excesses of alcohol (or other substances), a lack of legal awareness before travelling, or have deliberately sought out destinations to commit illegal acts, not every traveller stops to consider how their actions may impact the places they visit.

But for a small (and unlucky number of travellers, a holiday abroad can take an unexpected turn, not because of lost luggage, but because they fall victim to crime.
