Kyle’s Answer

Hey Isabella,

Thanks for your question! I would encourage you to first into what interests you or an industry that you find intrinsically motivating to you. Also worth understanding if you want to control the destinations that you are traveling to or if you are looking for a career that has travel opportunities within the role.

While you are speaking with recruiters you can also ask questions such as:

* What is the company's PTO Policy? (i.e. how easy is it to get days off in advance, flexibility).
* Am I able to work while traveling?
* Can I work remotely from any State/Country?
* Are there any travel benefits included?
* Is there any preferred state or location you can travel/work to?

Hopefully this information can help you in your journey!

Hi Isabella, good question!

There may be travel opportunities in both of your options, marine biologist and writing. Personally I would think that marine biology might have more travel involved if that's what you want to pursue. In any job I think that this will depend a lot on the company that you're working for and the job description. It's an excellent thing to ask about during future job interviews though. I would definitely recommend bringing it up.

When jobs require travel, it is typical for the company to cover your expenses . But again, this is an excellent question for interviews for positions where travel may be involved.

There are more jobs than you might think that have a lot of travel worked in! There are plenty of jobs that you may know already have a lot of travel worked in like journalism, photography, politics, as well as Ocwee's suggestions.

But within the corporate business world, there are also plenty of opportunities for travel: Sales, consulting, management just to name a few. Even a lot of coders I work with travel all around the world to present their projects.

I recently met a chef that is also publishes cook books. He traveled all around the world for his newest book to interview international chefs, and taste new foods.

Essentially, if you'd like to travel, there are sooooo many different paths you can go down! But, in some cases, you may have to advocate on your own behalf to get those travel opportunities once you have the job.

There are so many remote opportunities available today. I am an accountant but because my job is remote, I am able to travel and work from where I am visiting. Find your passion and then find a job that lets you do both!

Ted’s Answer

One of my good friends from college works on a Cruise ship. She is now a manager with Carnival Cruises, and she loves it. The lifestyle is very unique and might only be for some. You make around $30-40K a year (not confirmed), but you do not have any living expenses like rent or food. Regarding travelling, you are limited to the routine of the cruise, but there are many options once you are in the ecosystem. If you are personable and want to start saving money as you explore the world, this might be a good option to investigate. I would have exercised the opportunity if I was younger in life and my career.
