One of the biggest reasons that people give for not traveling as much as they would like to is concerns about money and how to afford taking trips. What if I told you that there are numerous job opportunities for employees in any field that can be done while traveling the world?
Getting paid to travel might sound like a dream, but it can be a reality. Here are a few ideas for jobs that will pay you to travel.
Freelance Writing
Working as a freelance writer has many benefits, the most notable being the fact that you can work on your own schedule and often from any location in the world. This means that you can write from the comfort of a hotel, as well as a car, plane, train, etc. Take your laptop on the go and complete your writing assignments, then enjoy your trip without worrying about work. Whether you’re writing about stem cell therapy treatments at ThriveMD or working on a mommy blog to write tips for expecting mothers, freelance writing provides you with endless opportunities to make money writing about a variety of interesting topics.
Work on a Cruise
Whether you are an entertainer, engineer, or work in the foodservice industry, there are plenty of opportunities for you aboard a cruise ship. Every ship needs plenty of entertainers, medical personnel, dining staff, and other faculty members to ensure that everything goes smoothly once they set sail. Top cruise lines not only pay well but usually offer free accommodations and dining, as well as access to all ship areas and activities to enjoy when you’re off the clock. Nothing beats getting paid to take a cruise vacation!
Offer Your Services to Locals
If you have artistic talent such as painting, drawing, or photography, you can meet locals on a trip that would pay for your services. Try staying at a hostile and offering services to fellow locals that you meet as well as fellow tourists. This can be hit or miss, but if you are successful, this is a great way to make a little extra spending money while traveling *and* doing something you enjoy – not to mention this adds a little excitement to fellow travelers and creates lasting memories for everyone on the trip. Making money on vacation should be fun!
