Despite being the world's second smallest continent by surface area, Europe is home to approximately11% of the world’s population.

As a region it offers a diverse mix of history, culture, architecture, fashion, language, cuisine and lifestyle. With all of this, it’s hardly surprising that Europe is frequently credited with being the birthplace of modern democracy.

Europe has also been home to many of the great scientists, artists, explorers, inventors, writers and philosophers of our time. From the canals of Venice and ancient buildings of Rome, the iconic art galleries and museums of Paris to the emerald waters of Croatia, a teaching stint in Europe offers an enriching experience at every turn.

Different ways of life

Of course, each country within Europe offers its own personality and different ways of life. Whether you prefer the fast pace of city life, the calm rustic villages or the beauty of rugged coastlines, there really is something for everyone.
