Looking to have flexibility in your career while traveling? You’re not alone! It’s become a lot more flexible and accessible for the everyday person to work and travel at the same time. For many younger generations, they’re realizing that life isn’t always just about work, and creating a better balance or one that leans more towards leisure and fun, is a lot more enjoyable.
Of course, you only have one life to live, so if you’re looking for some inspiration on travel-related jobs to explore this year, here are a few to get you started.
Trucking
Trucking isn’t probably the most exciting of jobs but it’s a job that is in high demand. It’s one of those jobs that can be isolating and lonely unless that is, you’re looking to use it as an opportunity to see the world.
From dry-van trucking to smaller truck jobs that are flexible for your schedule, it’s a type of job that is very much on the road and could end up taking you anywhere and everywhere. It’s obviously a necessity to acquire all the necessary licenses needed to operate such large vehicles. However, once it’s acquired, the world’s your oyster!
Freelance writing
Freelance writing is something that is extremely flexible, especially for those who are looking for remote working jobs. When it comes to freelance writing, you can take it pretty much anywhere as long as you have a laptop and internet connection to hand.
The freelance industry is of course growing with speed, especially since COVID-19 kicked the idea of remote working into action for a lot of businesses – albeit those who weren’t ready to do so.
However, it’s proven that remote working is effective, and thus freelance writers and freelancers in general are taking advantage of this influx of work to set up shop anywhere in the world.
Social media management
Another great digitally-led travel job with flexibility is social media management. Social media is a powerful tool for many businesses nowadays and there are plenty of businesses, all looking for social media managers and assistants, that don’t necessarily need to be available in-office.
If you can find the right company to work for, you could be creating and managing content from anywhere in the world.
Become a local tour guide
A local tour guide is always needed, especially if you’re someone who can soak up knowledge about a country or city like a sponge. If you’re already an experienced traveler, then becoming a local tour guide in your own country or in other countries you’ve visited is definitely something to consider pursuing.
Not only do you get to educate others on the area itself but you get to enjoy that place for longer as a result.
Teach English abroad
Finally, when it comes to travel, one of the main languages spoken is English, which is why it’s worth looking at teaching opportunities across the world. Who knows, you might be able to become a teacher who travels from one country to the next, teaching what you know as your native language.
Travel-related jobs are in abundance, so there’s no better time than now to take advantage of it as an avid traveler.
