What Jobs Allow You To Travel The World

Jobs where you travel the world?

Airline flight crews, cruise ship crew, military, photo or print journalist, nature photographer. The people that do the most travel in the company I work for these days are supplier management people - particularly auditors. With globalization, a lot of supplied parts, materials and subassemblies come from far flung places around the world. I had coffee with one guy who just returned from Germany and he was in China, France, and the Czech Republic earlier this year. One of the most in demand fields anywhere would be healthcare - it's the one area where you would be most likely to be able to land a job in a foreign country if you're interested in that. In that case, your job may not directly require travel, but you may be in a position to go out exploring on your own on weekends and holidays. I've been living in Italy for the last 12 years and have had the chance to visit most of Europe during that time.

You need to be aware that traveling for a job is not the same as travel on a vacation; it can be a great opportunity and rewarding. It can also be a lot of wear and tear - you really have to have the right personality to be on the road a lot and you don't necessarily get a chance to spend any time sightseeing. You could also consider foreign service (i.e., diplomatic corps).

Other possibilities might include oceanography, anthropology or archaeology but they don't necessarily get you in the field.

What navy jobs let you travel and see the world the most ( visit the most ports)?

Have you thought about working on American civilian ships? They pay a whole lot better than the Navy and you have a lot more freedom to choose where you work. It's called the merchant marine and is licensed and regulated by the US Coast Guard.

There are a lot of ways to go about it, but probably the easiest way is to call Seaman's International Union (SIU) and ask if they are shipping any entry level jobs. They have hiring halls in many coastal cities and even some inland cities as they have jobs on the great lakes and rivers. You'll have to go to the union hall to ship out.

There are three departments on a ship or tug: engine, deck and steward's department. All three departments have entry level positions, wiper in the engine room, ordinary seaman in the deck department and steward utility in the steward department. I would take the first job offered in any department if only to get your feet wet.
There are small inland American cruise ships that are always looking for seamen and are non union. They pay about 3k a month to start but you must have a HS diploma to get hired. They work the Great lakes, Mississippi River, Alaska; places like than. Google Small American cruise ships and you'll find their web sites. They have job applications right on their web sites. Get some sea time, get some Coast Guard endorsements such as an AB's ticket or a QMED's ticket and you'll make good money and sail all over the world.

You will need to get an MMC, TWIC card and an STCW but if you check out the SIU and small American cruise ships web sites and make some phone calls you should find out what you need to know. Don't try to get on the big cruise ships such as Carnival or Princess, they are only good to work on if you already have desired skills, entry level they REALLY suck.

The Navy isn't bad, but shipping out in the Merchant Marine is just way better. Good Luck.

What kind of job allows people to travel around the world and work at the same time?

As a consulting engineer I got to travel all over the UK, to Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy, Portugal, Switzerland, the USA and the Phillipines. Not Spain, because I still refuse to go there.Rarely did I get enough time off to see much except the insides of airports, factories and hotels. I did manage to get to the Epcot Center and the Kennedy Space Center on one trip to the USA, and some of the meals were quite memorable.I was working for a consultancy, so my time was always being paid for by someone. Get the reputation to work for yourself, and you would perhaps be able to devote more time to absorbing things.Edit: forgot Switzerland. How could I forget Switzerland?

When i grow up, I want to travel all over the world. What kinds of jobs allow you to do that?

Me, too! There are a few jobs that allow you to do that. In college, you could major in Global Studies, which is learning about all of the cultures of the world. Archaeologist, to a certain extent, you could get to go to different dig sites. Any very high level of entertainment in the industry. For example a model travels all over the world for shoots and fashion shows probably more so than any other job out there. Actors do, too, to film movies and go to festivals and such. Also nature photographers do, and travel photographers to take pictures of tourist attractions and pictures for magazines, etc.

What job types do you know that allow you to earn as you travel the world?

My current job is Implementation Consultant. It covers 3 roles of customer support for our software, development for maintenance / new features which allows for some rare travel for bugfixing workshops, and Implementation where I visit our new clients, provide training, scoping, convert them from their old system to our new software, and help them configure the system which can take anywhere from 6 months to a few years. After the first initial travels we then move to online meetings to save money and time for everyone.This allows me to travel to alot of the world. I have been doing it for about 1.5 years now and have already visited Austria, California, Texas, France and looking at possibilities of Italy and Pennsylvania in the next few months.I am only a small portion of our company and we have clients all over the world so where I go next is a mystery for me for the most part.It pays well and due to the nature of my job I consider it my dream career, so I treat the evenings and weekends I travel as a mini-holiday.

What are some jobs without a degree that allow you to travel the world?

Flight attendant is one. Soldier in the US military is another. Others include au pair, construction manager, consulting jobs for repairs or installation of specialized equipment, cruise line staff, SCUBA diving instructor, event coordinator (example: destination weddings), international aid worker (example: delivery driver in destination countries), international tour guide, Peace Corps volunteer, retail buyer for companies like World Market or sport One, ski instructor, stagehand or roadie, travel agent, travel writer, bartender, translator, worker at backpack hostels, freelance fitness instructor, chef, musician, photographer, seasonal jobs (construction, farm worker, electrician, etc.), and more.
