Pays well, about $30 an hour on average, for as many hours as I want What country are you in? Around here, interns still in college can earn more than that.

  I travel serially :) After covid settles a bit, I'll continue trawling south america, until then new zealand, who knows. There are often jobs that pay more, but they're either the fixed-price ones, or have fewer hours.

    Although as you point out, if I lived in the states I'd be poked. I visit there often enough, but family is kind enough to put me up and I take the time to save.

  Do you live in a particularly expensive area?

    Yes, the San Francisco Bay Area... which is not only expensive to live in, but software engineers are in high demand and well paid. But pretty much anywhere in the USA, $30 is not high pay for a software engineer.

      $30/hour for software devs in Scandinavia divides how much people earn up to if their education is short, and from if their education is long.
