Low cost of living and English speaking is tough to find. You might expand your search to places where English is commonly known enough to be able to get by until you learn the local language such as Spain, or possibly resorts that cater to international tourists.
I've heard some countries like Malta has an easier work permit, but it's true, work permits applying spans from nearly impossible to guaranteed success. I'm glad to know that sometimes work experience isn't required, it'll help tremendously when looking for a dealer job that will give that experience, but I don't know if it's just me, or the casino jobs are very competitive in entrance? I do fear being rejected for tons and tons of other people who do have an upper hand in experience.
I knew I was day-dreaming to ask for a low cost English speaking country, lol, perhaps any that is English friendly where a lot of people know English and the cost of living is expensive? The US and UK for example is high in that regards.

Multi-lingual people should always be able to find a spot .. give any thought to being a Casino Host or Floor? GL
Thanks for the info! I have already applied to Royal Carribean Cruise for the Asian trips as a casino dealer, but I don't think my chances are high. Definitely will check Rob out when I receive a decline email.
Multi-lingual sounds like a strong suit to add to my résumé, but I have found absolutely no fleeting mention of my native language anywhere on any casino job postings I've looked up. As for Casino Host or Floor Management, I'm fine with them, but I'm not sure I have much experience there as I do with the games, the experience they require seems to be more strict and not negligible like dealer experience where you can learn through training.
