Again great analysis of hypothetical situations for those that have been abroad saving money & how they can potentially develop secondary technical skills, learning languages, seeing new places, and dating exotic women outside of teaching English. It's true many employers out there will just need a bachelor's degree in something (doesn't have to be relevant), but showing that you have "relevant" side work experience, some side educational background, or side training in a technical field on top of that first undergrad completion could suffice. That's what one of my IT friends told me with regards to a personal lead back home.
Another good option would be online IT courses at say a nearby local community college while living abroad. If you are living abroad for a year or two, I'd recommend buying books off amazon.com before your trip for multiple semesters though lol. Enrolling in these community college classes while speaking to an advisor beforehand would mean the delay in student loan payments. Let's say you want to work abroad saving money yet would rather save money for a big chunk payment instead of minimum monthly ones. Well taking computer science classes from a local community college over a period of time would allow for that instead of a delayed forbearance payment, which capitalizes interest on top of interest. Yes interest would build up while your payments are being delayed being enrolled in an online academic program abroad, but it's still better than a forbearance really.
There are holes in my little suggestion too, but just another thought I'd add in for those looking to build their portfolio while abroad
