For some folks finding a position as a camp host can help ease one's distress. Campers are almost always relaxed, friendly, and out to have a good time. The campground, itself, is usually a beautiful and pleasant place to be. While it's only for part of the year and doesn't solve all one's issues (food for example), it can help move one's life forward.

If you have specific suggestions, I enjoy that kind of work, the main reason I don't say, work at a hostel is I lack th EU passport, as I mentioned in the thread.

In the US and the season is almost over. Perhaps there is something in the South, New Mexico, or Arizona. The first step is read the blurb on the Forest Service website. You want to try for an interview with the responsible FS employee. The job varies. For me it's just go around twice a day and check receipts and inform people of regulations for which I get a free campsite with water, sewer, and electricity. Other positions my require work like cleaning restrooms for which you would receive a small salary.

Good luck!

Where are you right now? You mention being a US citizen - why would you need a EU passport to get such a job in the US?
