South America (Spanish: América del Sur or Sudamérica; Portuguese: América do Sul) is the southern continent of America, situated entirely in the Western Hemisphere and mostly in the Southern Hemisphere, with a relatively small portion in the Northern Hemisphere. It is bordered on the west by the Pacific Ocean and on the north and east by the Atlantic Ocean; North America and the Caribbean Sea lie to the northwest.

America was named in 1507 by cartographers Martin Waldseemüller and Matthias Ringmann after Amerigo Vespucci, who was the first European to suggest that the newly discovered lands were not India, but a New World unknown to Europeans.

South America has an area of 17,840,000 square kilometers (6,890,000 sq mi), or almost 3.5% of the Earth's surface. As of 2005, its population was estimated at more than 371,090,000. South America ranks fourth in area (after Asia, Africa, and North America) and fifth in population (after Asia, Africa, Europe, and North America).

Does anyone know anything about getting jobs in South America?
Q. I just spent 4 months in Spain, learning the basics of the Spanish language. I would like to continue learning, but feel that I need to live in a spanish speaking environment in order to do so most effectively. Ideally, I would like to live somewhere in South America, being that it is easier to travel to and from NYC. If you have any information about realistic jobs in South America, I would appreciate the information. Thanks!

A. Why not go to East LA? Or Miami? Or NYC Or Houston? Or Dallas? Plenty of opportunity to hear and learn Spanish there. Also MOST countries require a work permit. You can work "off the grid", but most countries, w'/o their natl. ID card wont let you rent a house.. or open a bank account. Id go teach English to private students. Take out an Ad in the paper. Get a local cell phone. Youll be all set. Only accept CASH payments.
