There are even travel jobs out there for people without a college degree.

The reason I’ve been able to travel the world for the past 10-years is that I’ve slowly turned my travel blog into a very successful business that earns 6-figures a year.

However that’s certainly not the only path to freedom and long-term travel.

Hi, I’m Matthew Karsten

I’ve been traveling the world for 10+ years as a professional photographer & writer. I hope you enjoy my travel jobs guide! If you find it useful, please consider sharing. Thanks!

How To Work & Travel The World

First a little disclaimer. If all travel-friendly jobs were easy to get, everyone would have one! Many of these professions require passion, specialized training, time commitment, and talent. For those that don’t, the pay isn’t always great.

There is no magic way to instantly earn lots of money traveling.

The truth about becoming a location independent nomad is that it takes years of hard work and sacrifice behind the scenes — something too many people conveniently ignore.

That said, it’s not impossible to work and travel either. The people I interviewed for this article below have invested their time to learn how to make these jobs work for them — which means you can do the same if you make it a priority.

We all have the same 24 hours, how will you spend yours?

Best Travel Jobs for Backpackers
What Kind of Traveler Are You?

Expat, Digital Nomad, or Backpacker?

Not all “travel” jobs are created equally. The wanderlust opportunities listed here fall under one of the following categories — expat jobs, digital nomad jobs, travel industry careers, or what I’ll call backpacking jobs. What’s the difference you ask?

Expat Traveling Jobs

Expat stands for “expatriate”. Meaning while you are a citizen of one country, you choose to live/work in a foreign country. Expat jobs are only related to travel in that you’re not living in your own country. You may live in a country for months or years at a time (possibly on a remote work visa), and not fully nomadic.

Examples: English teacher, nanny, foreign service, etc.

Digital Nomads

A Digital Nomad works from their computer. This makes them location independent. As long as they have access to the internet, they can earn a living. Blogging falls under this category, so it also describes my lifestyle. Digital nomads are free to travel at will, working from coffee shops, hotels, or co-working spaces. Or they can work from home too.

Examples: Online business, freelance writing, social media, etc.

Backpacker Jobs

Backpackers and vagabonds do work that I’ll call “alternative” travel jobs. The type of work that may not require a computer or a college degree, but has a more hands-on approach. Think musicians, artists, or manual labor. Pay could be under the table.

Examples: Street vendor, musician, farm work, etc.

Travel Industry Careers

Finally, I’ll include a few popular travel industry career options too. These are more “traditional” business travel jobs in the hospitality and tourism industry. Positions like travel agents, local tourism boards, and travel marketing.

Examples: Travel agent, tour guide, tourism marketing, etc.

Side Income Ideas

Not Ready To Travel Yet?

Make sure to read my other article sharing different creative side-hustle ideas to make extra money from home.

Best Travel Jobs In 2024

The following travel jobs encompass one or more of the categories mentioned above.

If you crave the safety of permanent work, but you also want to live in a different country, then working abroad in a regular full-time type position might be best.

Keep in mind not all of these jobs are suitable for everyone. If you have a university degree, you might not be as willing to pick berries on a farm as someone else might be. Or maybe you are! I won’t judge.

We all have different backgrounds, skills, and comfort levels.

Traveling Bartender Job
Tend Bar in Foreign Countries

Bars, nightclubs and restaurants are located worldwide and the job description is pretty much the same everywhere. It helps to speak the language, so you may need to invest in a few weeks of language classes.

Touristy places will be easier to find work in this industry and there’s no minimum or maximum time requirement. Plus the more experience you gain as a bartender, the more job opportunities will open up, with a potential for higher income.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$1000 – $3000 per month

So you may not even need to learn new skills, depending on what your current profession is. But how do you find the companies that pay you to travel or who are hiring remote workers? There are some good remote work job boards that post these types of positions. Jobs like data collection, research, sales, administrative assistants, and more.

JOB INCOME RANGE

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Lauren started a successful food tour business in Spain.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$1000 – $10,000 per month

Translate Languages Online

9. Online Translation Jobs

Obviously, you need to know a second language to be a freelance language translator. But if that’s you, there are all kinds of companies out there who need translations done for websites, product manuals, books, and more.

If you’re just starting out, you could even translate restaurant menus, help run bilingual tours for tourists who speak your language or translate websites and blog posts. The more fluent you are, the more money you can make.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Alexandra works as a freelance language translator from English to Spanish.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$25 – $70 per hour

Backpacker hostels frequently hire travelers to fill positions on a short-term basis in exchange for free room and board. There are many different types of jobs, from working at the front desk to housekeeping or bartending.

If you plan to stay long-term, some hostels offer paid positions too. Actually, I once got paid to work at a backpacker hostel in Hawaii many years ago. It included a small salary and a free apartment to live in.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My buddy Dave worked the front desk at a backpacker hostel in Singapore.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$7 – $10 an hour, possibly with accommodation included

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friends Brandon & Anne make money teaching yoga while traveling.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$30 – $100 per hour

Digital Nomad Jobs: Writing
Write Professionally about Travel

12. Freelance Travel Writer

Writing about travel seems to be a dream job for many, however, it’s not something most people can just jump into. First, you have to be great with words. Next, you need to learn about networking, pitching to editors, and all the other business stuff involved.

Once you have those down, then it’s possible to write for magazines, newspapers, websites, or travel guidebooks and travel the world. Freelance copywriting and other types of writing are also options.

USEFUL EXAMPLE

My friend Jodi earns income on the road as a travel & food writer.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$50 – $200 per day

USEFUL RESOURCES


Make Money Traveling with Web Design
Design Websites Working Remotely

14. Website & Graphic Design

One of the most common travel careers for digital nomads is graphics or website design. All you need is your computer, an eye for design, and knowledge of certain software programs and online platforms. Things like Photoshop, Dreamweaver, WordPress, Illustrator, etc.

Talent for writing code helps too — specifically HTML, PHP, and CSS. School is great, but it’s also possible to learn on your own with tutorials. Building websites for others can lead to new clients, no matter where you are in the world.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My buddy Adam makes money traveling while designing websites.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$1000 – $4,000 per month

Travel Jobs: Cruise Ship Work

Many jobs also provide plenty of vacation time to travel on your own. There are different types of positions and careers available like tour manager, ship entertainment, engineer, housekeeping, cooks, and more.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Earl made money while working on cruise ships for a few years, and saving money to travel.

JOB INCOME RANGE

Travel Jobs: Day Trading Stocks

16. Trading Stocks or Crypto

Like many of the jobs in this list, you can’t just jump into day trading on the stock market without any prior experience and expect to become rich. However, I’ve met quite a few people who make money traveling and day trading stocks and/or cryptocurrency.

The reality is it usually takes a few years (and losing some money) before this line of work starts to pay off. A background in finance and spare cash to invest helps too. Just be wary, there are a lot of day trading scams out there too. Do your research and learn from someone who knows what they’re doing.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My buddy Marcello makes money day trading stocks while traveling.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$100 – $5,000 per day

USEFUL RESOURCES


Make Money as a Street Vendor

17. Traveling Street Vendor

Jewelry is the most popular item to sell as a street vendor, but it could also be art, clothing, leather goods… anything where you can source materials locally in bulk to make a product yourself.

Setting up as a vendor requires supplies, possibly meaning a long time in one location, but if you’re going to spend a season in one place it can be worth it. Popular locations with lots of tourist traffic work best.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Sorina sells leather accessories while traveling around Europe.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$20 – $200 per day

USEFUL RESOURCES


Make Money at Festivals

18. Traveling Festival Work

You don’t have to be a big name performer to work at festivals or events around the world. There are side-stage acts, installations, event staff, and food vendors too. Festivals always bring on lots of staff before, during and after the events.

You can time southern hemisphere Australian and New Zealand festivals between Canadian, American and European summer circuits.

JOB INCOME RANGE

Free tickets – $12 per hour

Travel Jobs: Professional Scuba Instructor

19. Scuba Diving Instructor

Scuba diving is a sport that is enjoyed all around the world. From Fiji to Iceland! The scuba diving community travels frequently, hunting for the best dive sites. And scuba divers have money to spend.

The training required to become a dive master can take a few weeks in beautiful places like Utila, Honduras or Koh Tao, Thailand while you get your certifications. Or, with more training become a Scuba Instructor, teaching people to become certified PADI divers.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friends Antonio & Amanda make money as scuba diving instructors.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$1000 – $4000 per month

USEFUL RESOURCES


Traveling Au Pair Job

20. Au Pair Traveling Jobs

An au pair is a professional live-in babysitter or nanny hired by a family to help their kids learn a new language and do some household chores in exchange for room, board, and a weekly income.

The job allows you to live in a foreign country, learn a new language, and experience the culture first-hand while making some money. Some countries pay more than others (the Middle East especially).

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Ashley made money working as an au pair in France.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$500 – $4000 per month

USEFUL RESOURCES


Flight Attendant Jobs

21. Work As A Flight Attendant

The life of a flight attendant may seem glamorous. Constantly jetting around the world, partying it up in different cities, experiencing different cultures, 90% off airline tickets, hotel discounts, cheap rent, and employment in the clouds.

The career training is tough, the hours are long, and all the moving around can get kinda lonely. However, for those with a case of wanderlust, it can help you travel the world for a while too.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Mia makes money traveling the world as a flight attendant.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$1000 – $4000 per month

USEFUL RESOURCES


Foreign Service Jobs

22. Foreign Service Travel Jobs

Working for the foreign service (aka diplomats) or an intergovernmental organization (IGO) is one position that allows you to experience life in a different part of the world.

Most of these international government jobs are only open to people with university degrees and knowledge of foreign languages. Applications and tests for these types of positions can be found online.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My wife Anna once worked abroad for the Polish embassy in London.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$500 – $10,000 per month

23. Travel Agent

Travel agents sell vacations to regular people who don’t want to deal with the logistics of planning their own trip. They often organize transportation, lodging, and activities, along with first-hand advice on destinations. You can either work for a large travel agency or work for yourself once you have experience.

Travel agents are expected to know the destinations they are “selling” which means spending lots of time traveling! Often, travel agents get to travel for free on what’s called FAM (familiarization) trips, so they can share their own travel experiences with clients.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$3000 – $6000 per month

USEFUL RESOURCES


Make a living while traveling

24. Drop Shipping / Private Labeling

It has a few names and variations, but buying or manufacturing products overseas and selling through Amazon under your own brand is an increasingly common way to make money while traveling.

Fulfillment By Amazon (FBA) means you don’t need an actual storefront location because inventory is stocked at Amazon’s network of fulfillment centers around the world.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Aileen makes money traveling & selling her own stuff on Amazon.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$1000 – $30,000 per month

Examples of jobs that require travel

25. Musician / Street Performer

Also known as busking, use your best talents to make some money from tourists. Create an act, grab an instrument, pick a spot with lots of foot traffic, and drop a hat. Many cities require a permit for busking, so make sure to do your research first.

Do you have any special talents? Acrobatics, painting, fortune telling, music, break dancing, henna art, it could be anything. You can turn your hobby into a job that allows you to travel.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Nadia earns money playing street music while she travels.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$10 – $100 per hour

Jobs that pay you to travel

26. List Your Place On Airbnb

I’m sure you’ve heard of AirBnB by now, the holiday apartment booking site that lets you stay in other people’s homes rather than hotels.

Well, some enterprising individuals are renting out their flats while they travel, making a decent income. The key is automating the process so you don’t have to be there in person. This allows you to freedom to see the world!

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Alyssa makes money renting her apartment on AirBnB.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$1000 – $7000+ per month

Seasonal Jobs for Travel Freedom

27. Seasonal Travel Jobs

I’ve met many travelers around the world who work seasonally, spending part of the year earning money and then traveling for months in the off-season. The number of jobs in this category are countless.

Construction, school teachers, commercial fishing, oil workers, electricians, ski resort staff, etc. These jobs depend on what skills you currently possess or are willing to learn.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My buddy Brian has worked construction jobs while traveling.

JOB INCOME RANGE

Varies widely

Playing cards for money

28. Internet Poker

It almost sounds too good to be true. Playing poker for a living, online or at real tables, from anywhere in the world. But like anything else, it requires lots of hard work to make that lifestyle sustainable.

You need to be good with numbers, possess the strong willpower to play for hours, keep your emotions in check, and be able to stay focused on repetitive tasks. There are whole communities of players who sometimes travel together this way.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My buddy Konrad makes money playing online poker for a living.

JOB INCOME RANGE

Working with non-governmental organizations

29. Peace Corps / NGO Work

Want the experience of a lifetime helping others less fortunate than yourself? Try volunteering with the Peace Corps or a Non-Governmental Organization. Just keep in mind that volunteer work is a full-time job.

While it makes your life rich with experiences, the money isn’t great. You’ll build confidence to handle any challenge — because the work itself is challenging.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Danielle worked as Peace Corps volunteer in Nicaragua.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$314 per month plus food & accommodation

USEFUL RESOURCES


Marketing Travel Careers

30. Freelance Travel Marketing

Again, not something you can just learn in a week. There is a reason people go to school and get a degree in marketing. However, if you have a business/marketing background, there is no reason why you can’t freelance this type of work from a hammock in Bali.

In fact, it’s becoming much more common — I’ve met plenty of people helping authors or brands get their name out to a wider audience while traveling. Or, you can work in travel marketing itself — for national tourism boards or large travel brands like hotels, magazines, tour companies, etc.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friends Pete & Dalene run a travel marketing company.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$1000 – $10,000+ per month

USEFUL RESOURCES


Working and traveling as a YouTuber

31. Videography / Vlogging / YouTube

Getting paid to travel making videos is another dream job, and some people make a very good living with it. There are a few different paths too — shooting and selling stock footage, becoming a popular YouTuber, or producing highly polished marketing films for tourism boards & travel brands.

A strong knowledge of video, editing, networking, and marketing is highly recommended for this type of work. And of course, this is a job that doesn’t absolutely require travel, but it certainly helps for creating amazing content.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Nadine earns income traveling as a professional YouTuber.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$1000 – $20,000+ per month

YOUTUBER RESOURCES


Working as a Travel Nurse

32. Traveling Nurse Positions

To become a travel nurse, you must first get a degree as a registered nurse (RN) which takes 2-4 years. Once you have that, it’s possible to apply for temporary travel nursing jobs which can last up to 13 weeks.

Depending on the assignment, sometimes these jobs include tax-free income, free housing, medical coverage, rental cars, and more. There are travel nursing staff agencies that specialize in helping you locate a job overseas too.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Rachel worked as a travel nurse for a while.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$30 – $40 per hour

Computer Programming Digital Nomads

33. Nomadic Computer Programmer

If you already have the skills & training needed as a computer programmer, then transitioning your cubicle office job into a freelance position that allows you to work remotely would give you the freedom to travel.

There are special freelance programming websites where you can bid on jobs, or you can try to launch a company to build your own products like iPhone apps or custom web applications.

WORKING EXAMPLE

Travel & Work as a Virtual Assistant
Work as a VA from Anywhere

34. Online Virtual Assistant

With advancements in office technology and a desire to reduce employee costs, businesses are increasingly looking to hire virtual assistants who can work from home (or anywhere). There is little that personal assistants can’t do remotely these days.

Social media scheduling, responding to customer inquiries, calendar management, and all sorts of other tasks can be taken care of by a competent virtual assistant. It’s a job that often allows you to work from anywhere in the world!

WORKING EXAMPLE

My own assistant, Jess, travels & works as a virtual assistant.

JOB INCOME RANGE

$15 – $35 per hour

VIRTUAL ASSISTANT RESOURCES


Freelance Consulting Work

35. Professional Consultant

Are you an expert in your field? Working as a professional consultant for companies may give you the ticket to location independence. Consultants work on short-term projects, helping businesses grow by training staff how to do something better.

For example, instructing a business on how to use social media effectively, or how to become more environmentally friendly. Generally, they are paid to share their specialized expertise.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Dave travels and works as a consultant for oil companies.

JOB INCOME RANGE

Varies widely.

CONSULTING RESOURCES


Working Holiday Visa Jobs

36. Working Holiday Visas

A working holiday visa is a special residence permit allowing younger travelers to legally work in foreign countries and supplement their travel funds. They are generally intended for people between the ages of 18 to 30, and requirements differ based on the country.

Some popular destinations for working holidays include Australia, Canada, New Zealand, France, Ireland, and Singapore. Many GAP year students will get a working holiday visa to travel for a while before returning home and looking for a more permanent job.

WORKING EXAMPLE

My friend Marta has lived in 3 different countries on working holiday visas.

JOB INCOME RANGE

Depends on the type of job.

Ready To Start Working While Traveling?

The truth is there are many ways to work while traveling the world, but many remote positions require some prior skills, a solid time commitment, or previous experience.

If it was easy, everyone would be doing it.

Dream jobs often take years to materialize and include unimaginable effort & sacrifice that the average person just can’t understand until they experience that same journey for themselves.

While I make a good living with my travel blog — it didn’t happen overnight. It’s the same for most of these other jealousy-inducing jobs.

But I hope this article has demonstrated that there are plenty of people out there working hard and “living the dream” who manage to make money while traveling. It’s not impossible!

So get out there and start making your own travel dreams come true. ★
