The average 9-to-5 desk job isn’t for everyone. The good news is that it isn’t the only option either. For those always en route to the next destination, there are plenty of careers to match your free spirit. These range in education level, skills, and interests, so everyone can find something they love.

1. Freelance Writing

Remote work is becoming more and more popular. As a freelance writer, you can work from anywhere in the world. This field also has a variety of niches that a freelancer can take on. For instance, those with a strong academic background could find work in essay writing. This could include responsibilities such as writing, editing, and rewriting. Aside from being an academic essayist, freelancers can dedicate themselves to journalism, blogging, fiction, and more.

2. Teach English as a Second Language

It only makes sense that being bilingual helps someone find work as they travel. For those that are fluent, teaching English as a second language is a great option. It’s easy to get certified as an ESL teacher in the United States as well. Outside of the United States, ESL opportunities are limited only by the languages you can speak. To get started, ESL teachers need to find where English language learners are and where ESL services are needed.

3. Au Pair

Au Pair is a committed job which the constant traveler may balk at. However, it isn’t without its traveling perks.

 

Au Pairs are hired by families to watch their children. These individuals work for the family long term and sometimes receive room and board alongside a salary. They are often hired by more affluent families who often bring them along on family trips. So, in return for caring for children, Au Pairs get the chance to explore places they may not have gone to on their own.

4. Bartending

Many think that being a bartender means being tied to a certain club. On the contrary, many bartenders travel from gig to gig. This isn’t something that just anyone can do, though. Pouring a beer or two is incredibly different from being a dedicated bartender. Practiced and skilled individuals, on the other hand, can find work as they go. The more often you visit a locale and the more familiar you are, the higher chance there is for gigs but this isn’t a requirement. All anyone really has to do is show off genuine talent and skill.

5. Archaeologist

It takes a lot of planning ahead but if you’re looking for a career that takes you all over the world, archaeology might be just the thing for you. This career takes archaeologists all over the world on digs and other research. The job requirements in this field generally include at least a Bachelor’s degree which many devote to anthropology. More job opportunities open with a Master’s degree or Ph.D. It’ll also take a bit of field experience to land most positions.

6. Rent Out Your House

Almost every traveler has a place they call home. Yet, that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re there all that often. Anyone can capitalize on a temporarily empty house by renting it out. One of the most popular channels for doing this through is Airbnb. It can be intimidating getting started on a project this big but there are plenty of guides to help new listers get started.

7. Travel Agent

Travel agents guide others through the trips they’ve dreamed of. As you might have guessed, someone who never leaves their desk isn’t a great source for this information. Almost all agents have traveled extensively and still do. Most home-based or remote agents are free to work as they please. Some places do have laws on registration, so check your locale before getting started. This is definitely a field that puts more emphasis on experience than degrees. That means that it’s a great way to put “street smarts” to use.

Conclusion

The days of being forced to tie yourself to one place are over. Whether you skip town every few months or don’t tie yourself to one place at all, there are career options to fit your lifestyle. With any of these jobs, you can keep your luggage packed and plane tickets in hand.
