Want to travel, but also need to maintain an income? You can earn money and see the world by planning to travel and work at the same time. Below are just 7 ways in which you can work while traveling. 

Become a digital nomad

There are many jobs that only require a laptop and a working internet connection. This includes jobs like copywriting, graphic design and programming. You can carry out such jobs from almost anywhere in the world – which makes them the perfect way to earn money and travel at the same time. Such as travelers are typically referred to as digital nomads. Becoming a digital nomad is one of the most flexible ways to work and travel as you can often choose your own working hours and spend as much time at any location as you desire.

Work on a cruise ship

Cruise ships hire people to fulfill all kinds of roles from chefs to technicians to entertainers. While you’re likely to be working most days aboard the cruise ship, you will get some days off. These can be spent making the most of the ship’s amenities or exploring any port that you happen to have stopped off at. Many cruise ship workers end up transferring to different ships every couple years in order to explore different routes. This allows you to see all kinds of places around the world on your days off. 

Look for temporary jobs

Another way to travel and work is to take advantage of temporary jobs. This can allow you to stay in different locations for a few weeks at a time. Traveling nursing jobs are a prime example of this – it’s possible to take up nursing positions at different hospitals and clinics around the world for weeks to months at a time. You’ll make an income and you’ll be able to experience living in different places. 

Take up seasonal resort work

You could also try working at a seasonal vacation resort for a few months. Some people get a bug for this and end up working at several different resorts over several years. This typically involves working as an activities rep or bartender at a beach resort in the summer and at a ski resort in the winter. 

Become a flight attendant

Flight attendants get to fly to various different destinations. You’ll spend the journey there and back working, but there will be times when you get to stay at a destination for a day to two – often in a hotel that’s paid for by your airline. Flight attendants also often get discounts on flights. This means that, if you wanted, you could spend your time off traveling at a discounted price. 

Start a travel blog/vlog

While it’s not easy to do, you can make money running a travel blog or vlog. By creating engaging content centered around your travels, you can build an audience. The more views you get, the more ad revenue you can make. 

Get a traveling sales job

There are also many sales jobs that involve traveling around the world and selling products or services to companies. In these cases, you will spend most of your travels working, but you’ll still get to see different places around the world.
