Nothing is better than the freedom we have to travel anywhere we choose. We’re lucky enough to be able to stick a pin in a map and go. It doesn’t matter if you have a tiny budget and are backpacking your way around the world, or if you have saved all year and are looking for the adventure of a lifetime. In today’s world, we are blessed with choices and means to discover some fantastic destinations.
The problem is, we need to fund our trips, and that means we need a career. Having a job is going to get in the way of all the amazing places we want to see. Even if you are a flight attendant, you aren’t going to get enough time to really get to the heart of the culture of the beautiful destinations you travel to.
Don’t worry, though! The other great thing about the world today is that we have the ability to work from anywhere in the world thanks to the internet! This is especially true if you start your own business.
If you are going to go freelance or open a business of your own but plan to be jetting all over the world and working remotely, then you will need a physical mailing address in your home country. In the past, it’s been possible to have a PO Box, but these addresses won’t take deliveries from usual couriers. Today you can register your business at an address and have all your mail directed there and handled by a team at that address.
You need to pick your career wisely if you want to travel. If you have a strong social media following, then you could become an influencer based in the travel and luxury life sector. However, if you don’t yet have a big enough following and this is your goal and passion to become an influencer of some type, then why not take a look into something like Growthoid that can help you in building a bigger fanbase on social media platforms so you’re one step closer to your dreams. Also, it’s a good idea if you have a strong digital marketing experience and you can write and create your videos. If you can do this, you could travel the world, not pay for your hotels and make money through your digital marketing expertise. Perhaps you could run digital marketing for other businesses such as travel agents. Charging a retainer to deliver a set amount of posts and improve the reach of the company, will give you a monthly income. If you are traveling a lot, then you will have plenty of content for their social media platforms.
If you are a writer, you could start a blog writing service for companies that are too busy to keep their site fluid. You could even work for an agency to keep your income topped up. You can work from anywhere you like providing you have the internet.
There are so many options for someone who likes to keep moving and exploring so get innovative, look at the talents you already have and set yourself up a small business doing what you enjoy. You could even end up building your own travel agency! Imagine all those amazing nights checking out new destinations for your clients!
