There Are Ways To Travel And Make Money That Can Change Your Life

By Maria Ross


A lot of people would love to take a few years off to travel the world. Most end up working extra hours, eating at home instead of at restaurants, and fore going that mocha latte in the morning in order to save enough cash to take one special trip. Others find creative ways to travel and make money they need to live as they wander all over the globe.

If you are willing to teach, there are a lot of opportunities to work as a tutor or teacher of English. You can get information from websites that explain how the process works. This is not a way to get rich, but it will pay for many of your expenses while you are abroad. English is not the only subject that you can teach in a foreign country. You can look into the possibilities of becoming an instructor of Yoga, music, art, or dance classes.

Even if you aren't a professional writer, you might earn extra income selling travel articles. This is a good idea for someone who doesn't want to be tied down to one area for a period of time. You can write anywhere, and the more exotic the location the more interested online publishers will be in your observations. Creating a blog describing your journey can be a money maker. Most people are interested in customs and cultures other than their own.

Travelers with a knack for sales can find jobs selling timeshares. This can be very lucrative if you are good at it. Companies like to hire individuals who can speak and relate well to their clients. They prefer to pair American tourists with American sales people for example.

A job in the service industry is a good possibility, especially for younger travelers. Hotels and bars like to hire English speaking individuals. Youth hostels also have jobs for those who can work with youngsters. You might not get rich waiting on tables or guiding tours, but it will probably be enough to get you by.

If you have always dreamed of being in a movie or television show, you might try out for roles in the entertainment industry. If you are bi-lingual, you are probably more likely to get chosen. Looks can be important too. Of course, if this is a job that interests you, you have to be very careful not to get in a dangerous situation.

Artists have a long history of living abroad and making their living selling canvases, pottery, and photography out of local galleries. You may need a part time job to cover your expenses, but the experience will be worth it. Art patrons still exist, and you never know when a wealthy art connoisseur will offer to underwrite your talent.

If you are only going to consider the traditional ways of funding travel, you may miss out on a lot of opportunities. Travel lovers with limited financial resources have to be creative to see the world. Working your way around the globe is one way to do it.
