How To Travel And Make Money

By Paul Cole


There are a huge number of jobs available for the average traveller as you will soon discover. These days, it is possible to travel and make money at the same time. In addition to this, you won't be making money waiting on tables. Of course, you can do this, but there are other jobs available where you will be paid equal wages to a local.

The job you do can relate to your profession. When you tell them that you have experience and a qualification, it will obviously go in your favour. For example, you may be a chef, a painter, a hair stylist or a dance instructor. You can look for jobs in any of these areas. However, if you are in a country where they don't speak your language, it is a good idea to refresh this.

You will need to do your research and find out what jobs require degrees and which ones pay well. There are certain countries that demand teachers, for example. Asian countries are always looking for English teachers. There is a short course that you can attend in order to get this qualification. You don't always need a degree, and you can find something through an agency.

While you may enjoy what you do, some people want to take a break from their career. You are traveling and you want to enjoy this time in your life. You want to look back at this time with fond memories. Therefore, you should go to your job as if you really want to be there. You should have a passion for what you want to do. Many people enjoy busking or teaching a dance class.

A lot of people will backpack around Europe and other parts of the world and find free accommodation by working in hostels. They may stay here for long periods of time. Sometimes you will be asked to clean the hostel and you will be paid for this. There is often work available here, especially in the bigger hostels.

However, there are a lot of different things to do these days. It doesn't just consist of construction, looking after children and bar jobs. This was the norm back in the day. You didn't have to have a qualification or experience to do these jobs. You didn't think of jobs that were more creative. However, it is possible to take advantage of these jobs now.

A hobby like art work or different craft projects can get you far. There is always a market for this. These can do well at the markets. You could sell these at shops. If you are going to be in an area for a long time you can give these to a shop on a consignment basis.

You will also meet people as you go. Many people enjoy buying crafts at a hostel. You may also find cheap products in some of the Asian countries. You will be able to make a profit when you bring these items somewhere else to sell. You could obviously raise your price in the Western countries.
