35 BEST Travel Jobs to Make Money While Travelling

Do you wish you could travel more but don’t have enough money?

Then this guide is for you! It will tell you all about the types of epic travel jobs that you can do. Ultimately, this post will help you find work and travel the world… FOREVER.

There are a surprising number of jobs that involve travelling, a few canny ways to make money travelling abroad, and even some jobs where you actually get paid to travel… (The best kind!)

From freelancing to affiliate marketing, travel blogging, tending the bar at a hip hostel–there are seriously all kinds of awesome – and some terrible – travel jobs you can get to make ends meet and prolong your travels.

The life of a working traveller is varied and complex: there are countless tools in your arsenal! In today’s post, I’m giving you the lowdown on some of the best travel jobs for backpackers, expats, and aspiring digital nomads. And realistically, for nearly all of them, you don’t need no tertiary education.

Ditch your desk, amigos: the world is waiting and the only thing you need to SUCCEED is  grit.

• Making Money Travelling the World:Types of Travel Work

The 35 Best Travel Jobs in 2024

Did you find your dream travel job, making money travelling the world: types of travel work.

There are lots of different types of travel jobs out there, and they can roughly be broken down into three categories. Let’s take a look at them before we delve into the jobs themselves…

There are some jobs that will pay you to travel the world. This might sound very glamorous at first, but you have to bear in mind you may not get as much of a chance to actually explore as you will be working. These could be travel jobs or potentially even travel careers , but they still generally require the level of input from you that any regular ol’ boring job would.

Jobs that require travel and pay well, such as being an airline pilot or foreign service travel jobs, will offer you a chance to save up mega-cashola and to hopefully see parts of the world during your downtime. But to be honest (and in my opinion) these travel careers don’t have the same kind of freedom as being a digital nomad.

Personally, I’m a big believer in making money through a digital nomad job as these jobs allow you to work from literally anywhere in the world, on your own schedule, and often as your own boss.

It takes time to set up a career as a digital nomad career… But it’s easy to get started now and to begin your journey!

All you need is a laptop plus a few other of the digital nomad essentials , and idea of WHAT you want to do, and a place in the world that you’re content to get some work done from. Well, that and playlist that gets you in the zone!

Beccoming a digital nomad changes how you travel , so for backpackers that want to retain their backpacker-roots, you need a job for backpacker. These travel jobs are job-jobs.

They could be wicked jobs, they could be shitkicker jobs. They could, potentially, also progress into careers, but they wouldn’t be travel careers. You’d just be an expat with a regular ol’ job.

Many of the best travelling jobs for backpackers are super casual affairs – seasonal work or temporary labour gigs. I’ve found paying work on goat farms, behind bars, in hostels, on construction sites, on beaches, and in many other places whilst backpacking around the world. It’s usually very easy to find some casual work as a backpacker.

All you need is a good smile, good work ethic, and maybe the willingess to be paid under the table for less than minimum wage! (Oops, did I say that? You do you.) 😉

Let’s look at how to work and travel like a BOSS (or self-employed hustler). Ideas range from online trading to teaching yoga to consulting. Don’t Work Another Day ; we have something for every CV!

1. Make Money Blogging

Starting a blog is one of the best travel jobs out there. You can travel whenever you want and make money out of your adventures to keep you going! However, blogging is not easy and it’s not one of those jobs to make money quickly.

Blogging offers a great introduction to many different digital nomad careers. You’ll learn more about SEO, copywriting, web design, social media management, marketing and PR… the list goes on! All you need to get started is a decent laptop for travel blogging and loads of patience!

If you want to get a taste of blogging before launching your own, you can look into becoming a virtual assistant or if writing is more your thing becoming a freelance service provider , like Sofie Couwenbergh is also a viable option. Working for a blogger is the best way to learn the tricks of the trade!

Full disclosure: The travel blogging industry is competitive, cutthroat, and, honestly, oversaturated. DO expect a long road to the top.

How Much Can You Earn?

• From $0 – $50,000 per month!

Finding a work-friendly atmosphere is important – check out Tribal Bali …

Having a job is one thing, but being able to sit down and get some work in is a whole other story. Luckily there are amazing coworking spaces all over the globe. But what if you could combine working and a place to live? Say no more…

Introducing the best Coworking Hostel in the World – Tribal Bali!

A unique coworking and co-living hostel for those that want to travel the world while working from their laptops. Make use of the massive open-air coworking spaces and sip on delicious coffee. If you need a quick screen break, just take a refreshing dip in the infinity pool or grab a drink at the bar. Need more work inspiration?

Staying at a digital nomad-friendly hostel is a really smart way to get more done whilst still enjoying the social life of travelling… Mingle, share ideas, brainstorm, make connections and find your tribe at Tribal Bali!

2. Teach English Abroad

For backpackers looking to settle somewhere for a year or more to save up some serious cash, teaching English abroad is one of the best jobs for nomads.

These days, you can teach English in most countries in the world while seeing all the goods they got to offer at the same time! This is probably one of the best travel careers out there: there’s a low barrier to entry and most native speakers can get a travel job teaching English.

Being a native speaker gives you an obvious advantage, but it’s also possible for non-native speakers to get work teaching English too.  You don’t even really need a degree to teach English in many countries, however, nabbing a TEFL certificate through an online course first will help you hit the ground running. (And hopefully will mean you won’t be a crap teacher too ?)

It’s a small investment that will help you score more gigs AND better-paying gigs in the long run. Plus, think of the children! Won’t somebody think of the children!?!?

• $1500 – $3000 depending on the country.

3. Teach English Online

Thanks to the power of the internet, the world of teaching English online has opened doors to English speakers everywhere! You can work from anywhere! (Provided you have a solid internet connection.)

What’s the best part? Depending on the company you work for, you can choose your own schedule and commitment level. Whatever works for you!

Teaching English online is fast becoming one of the best ways for backpackers to make money online without a doubt. Online teaching platforms connect prospective teachers with keen students. Set your pricing, choose your hours, and market yourself to potential clients.

The money isn’t impressive, particularly in the early days, but this is a job that you can grow and literally do anywhere. Nothing beats a location independent gig!

• About $1500 per month.

4. Dropshipping

Dropshipping is when you ship products to customers, usually in Europe or the USA, from somewhere cheap (usually China). Essentially, you manage the online storefront while a third party handles the logistics of storing and shipping products.

Now, dropshipping CAN be profitable. It can also be a major headache: you have been warned.

5. Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing is very simple. It means that you recommend a product or service to your audience, and if someone on your website uses or buys that product or service, you get a commission!

Affiliate marketing is basically being a middle man and is one of the most popular, proven, and sustainable ways to create income online.

If you are interested in online jobs travellers can easily utilise, learning effective affiliate marketing strategies is the holy grail. Passive income is fucking POWERFUL.

• Oodles but you need the traffic to earn it. But then, it all flows in passively. 😉

6. Crytocurrency and Day Trading

The exciting world of cryptocurrency investment has come a long way. You can HODL, stake, mine, generate interest (yup – totally a thing now!), and, of course, trade.

Day trading is a really exciting – but very nerve-wracking – way to make money while travelling. I have no experience trading stocks, but a lot of people I know have been trading cryptocurrency for a while now and have seen rather delectables return on their investments (with some losses along the way).

If you have money that you can afford to lose (seriously, this shit carries risk), then day trading is one of the most exciting travel jobs out there right now.

• The sky’s the limit!

7. Volunteering

Okiedoke – volunteering! Now, clearly, volunteering ISN’T a travel job, however, it’s functionally the same. You work (hard), you greatly reduce your travel costs, plus you’ll have some life-changing experiences while you’re at it. So it fits the bill!

Now, while voluntourism has received some flak over the years (and the trade has only become stickier in the COVID-times ), volunteering still remains one of the most meaningful ways to travel. A free feed and bed is certainly a win, but it’s the experience and the knowledge that you’re actually making a difference is what makes it, honestly, one of the best travel jobs for backpackers.

You have a lot of good options for volunteering abroad:

• WWOOF – An organisation primarily concerned with connecting working travellers with volunteering gigs on organic farms and agricultural projects.
• Workaway (and its numerous alternatives ) – As well as agricultural projects, these guys tend to also connect you to volunteering gigs around the board. Hostel work, translation and copywriting, building skate ramps, building backyard dunnies: it’s a wide net.
• Worldpackers – Our personal fave platform for this bizz.

Worldpackers is a smashing organisation. They’ve got more of a community focus than many of the alternatives and they run a tight ship too!

We sent one of our tried and true broke backpackers on a volunteering mission to Vietnam and the results were stellar. So stellar, in fact, that we happily partnered with them to bring Broke Backpacker readers a discount on the signup fee!

Just enter the code BROKEBACKPACKER at the checkout when signing up or do the clicky-click below!

Worldpackers: connecting travellers with  meaningful travel experiences.

We’ve also got a review of Workaway you can peruse if Worldpackers doesn’t float your boat. They’re a bit more stuffy (a natural caveat for being the lead of the pack), but they have volunteering gigs coming out of the ears!

And as one brief little sidenote, it’s worth noting the skills you pick up volunteering can go a LONG way to aiding you in your career as a working traveller. The more you know, the more backpacker jobs open up to you.

8. Become A Freelance Travel Photographer

If you love taking pictures, why don’t you make the most of your skills and be paid for it? Breaking into freelance photography is no easy, feat but it’s totally possible if you have perseverance and work at honing your craft every day.

You can travel the world forever by snapping away… If you get really good at your craft, you can even land a job that pays you to travel as a professional photographer for either the media or, the dream, National Geographic.

• $0 – $5000
• BEST Cameras for Travellers
• GoPro Alternatives to Make You  Whoah
• Top Camera Bags – Buyer’s Guide!
• Essential Camera Accessories You NEED

9. Teach Yoga

Yoga continues to grow in popularity around the world, and yoga instructors are in high demand. While not the highest paying job for travellers, finding work as a yoga instructor is one of the more assured ways to work and travel.

Travellers love yoga and are keen on lessons just about anywhere in the world. Combine that with hostels, cafes, and community centres (among a million other venues) always being on the lookout

Getting a yoga certification CERTAINLY helps you stand out from the crowd but it necessarily isn’t needed. Talk to other guests at your hostel, or people around any beach, hippy, or traveller town and see what you can rustle up. Start off with a sesh at a world-class yoga retreat to learn a few Asanas and limber up first and the rest will be easy.

Alternatively, head over to Yoga Travel Jobs Directory and see if there are any worthwhile postings. The beauty of this one is that the informality allows you to find work on the road in most places without the added red tape.

• $5/hour or even less in developing nations. Bounce on over to the northern beaches of Sydney though, and activewear soccer mums eat that shit up for $50+ a pop!

10. Fitness Instructor

Similar to yoga, if you’re in shape and know how to break a sweat, you can get paid to help others do the same! I love finding creative ways to stay in shape while travelling and you’ll find plenty of other travellers who will share this interest.

See if your hostel wants to organise any activities or events which you can market by word of mouth or by putting a flyer up. Head to a park or the beach and BOOM! You’re a certified fitness instructor… sort of.

Certifications are for losers without glorious, rippling muscles.

11. Tour Director

Directors accompany a tour group for the entirety of the itinerary and basically make sure people are having a good time. If it’s a twenty-one-day culture tour through Central America, the tour director is there the entire time, leading the group, answering questions, communicating with the bus driver, and, most importantly, creating solutions when shit goes wrong.

This is one of the travel industry careers that require the most work, but if you think you possess the qualities, there are thousands of amazing adventure tour companies looking for new leaders worldwide.

This industry is very competitive, but once you get your foot in the door you’ll be offered work left and right. I’ve got some experience leading adventure tours myself and this is a solid choice of job that involves travelling… You just need to have endless amounts of energy.

These are maybe the best jobs for travel and adventure for those that seek the high life and the pay ain’t too shabby either!.

• $1000 – $3000

Drink water from ANYWHERE. The Grayl Geopress is the worlds leading filtered water bottle protecting you from all manner of waterborne nasties.

Single-use plastic bottles are a MASSIVE threat to marine life. Be a part of the solution and travel with a filter water bottle. Save money and the environment!

We’ve tested the Geopress  rigorously  from the icy heights of Pakistan to the tropical jungles of Bali, and can confirm: it’s the best water bottle you’ll ever buy!

12. Travel Tour Guide

As opposed to a tour director, a tour guide usually does shorter tours (think three-hour walking tours). Ideally, tour guides are experts in their niche, but sometimes just a bit more knowledge than the average Joe will suffice

If you have experience or certification, getting tour guide work will be easy. If you travelling in the EU , you can also find tour guide work within Europe relatively easy (free walking tours, etc.) without certification.

Otherwise, there are lots of people on the web tapping into their entrepreneurial spirit and starting their own tour jobs while on the road.

• $500 – $1500

13. Work on A Boat

Unfortunately, the days of being a pirate are kinda over, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still work and live on a boat!

A traveller’s job on a boat is certainly easier to get with experience, but sometimes it’s as easy as just walking onto a dock and asking around. Teach yourself to tie knots first and you’ll be golden.

Want to significantly increase your chances of getting hired on a superyacht or boat? Consider taking a course at the Super Yacht School – an online training company that educates people on everything they need to know regarding how to land a job on a superyacht as a crew member.

Alternatively, become a cruise ship worker and live the party-working-travelling-life on the high seas. Drugs, booze, and nights of wanton hedonism – excellent!

• $1200 – $2500

14. Boat Delivery

More boats! This one is a bit difficult to get into as a newbie, but if you have some experience working on the high seas, boat delivery has some serious work and travel potential. Typically the pay won’t be very high (if at all) but you’ll get your experience up and get to sail the seven seas for free!

Getting into this travel career could lead to more lucrative gigs in the future too, so it’s worth considering if the goal is simply finding jobs that let you travel.

Head over to Crewseekers.net or cruisersforum.com for some killer job leads!

15. Making and Selling Jewellery

Screw travel jobs – be a travel entrepreneur! While you can make and sell anything, jewellery is certainly the backpacker artisans staple, and I’ve met lots of people who make and sell jewellery whilst travelling .

Some critics of budget backpacking might have a go at you for – ahem – “begpacking” , but to those critics I say… get a job, ya hippy! If you’re wheeling, dealing, and hustling on the road, you are the literal opposite of a begpacker. It’s fun too!

The materials can be cheap and light to carry, it’s an artsy and fun thing to do, and you can set up shop (busking-style) in most places in the world that are kind to street merchants (i.e. not Malaysia). Selling handmade jewellery on the street isn’t the path to becoming a billionaire, but if you can make a decent product, it’s a great way to bring in enough to cover a day of gallivanting.

It isn’t strictly one of the easiest travel jobs out there if you genuinely care about your craft. Sourcing ethical materials, making the jewellery, and haggling for a fair price can all be a real battle. But damn you’ll have some ten-outta-ten adventures along the way!

• $300 – $1000 per month

16. Importing Stuff to Sell

A personal favourite of mine, this is what I sometimes refer to as the ‘ stuff your backpack’ method. It’s an easy w ay to make some money back after quitting your job to travel .

When in exotic countries, you will find awesome trinkets and doodads that people back home will go crazy over! Think hippy stuff: chillums, trousers, jewellery, festival belts, etc. These items will be authentic and dirt cheap.

Then, when you are outside that country and back in the good ol’ inflationary West, you can sell the authentic handcrafted Indian peace pipe that you paid $.75 cents for in Mumbai for $15 at festivals or online! It’s a great way to make 1,000% or more on your investments.

To make the most money though, you’ll have to frequently hit the road and stuff your backpack (a big hiking backpack is good for this) as well as have a good eye for stuff to take back home. If you can somehow inject something about chakras into the marketing spiel you’ll give to sell it, it’s a winner.

• $500 – $2000 per month

We’ve tested countless backpacks over the years, but there’s one that has always been the best and remains the best buy for adventurers: the broke backpacker-approved Osprey Aether and Ariel series.

Want more deetz on why these packs are so  damn perfect? Then read our comprehensive review for the inside scoop!

17. Busking

Another of the world’s oldest professions that now catches some flak from the world’s newest crybabies: busking. If you have a talent, you can flaunt it for some cash in the street AND – better yet – make a bunch of people smile too!

You doen’t have to be a wandering musician with a travel-sized guitar either; magic, acrobatics, juggling, flow, dance – anything that’s impressive enough to score a tip is worth the shot, and you can score some mean tips! (Believe it or not.)

If the artisti di strada chooses the right location and is talented (or smiley) enough, there’s a pretty good chance they are making some dough! Enough to cover a day’s cost at least… You just need to know how to busk !

Also, if you are a musician, you should look into giving lessons for work while travelling or even playing some low-key gigs at bars or hostels. It’s a good way to score a feed, and it’s certainly not a bad payoff for a few hours of jammin’!

The resident in-house dirtbag busker on The Broke Backpacker team had this to say:

“I’ve had $5/hour days, I’ve had $50/hour days; busking is large part luck, however, there is a hidden art and science to the craft.”

18. Scuba Diving Instructor

Get paid for adventure. Underwater adventures no less!

Becoming a certified scuba diver and instructor takes a bit of investment, but it can be one of the most fun ways to work and travel the world simultaneously. You need a handful of courses and certifications, as well as having logged in a certain amount of hours underwater yourself, and then the world is your… oyster. (Huehuehue.)

If you are already certified, get excited! If you aren’t, you can do it at home, or take advantage of many (significantly cheaper) programs that exist in countries like Thailand and the Philippines. Hands down this is one of the best ways to get paid to travel PLUS you can pick up paying work in lots of different countries around the world.

Plus, y’know, dive for a living. Not bad, ‘ey?

• $1000 – $4000 per month.

19. Surf Instructor

Similar to a scuba instructor but without all of the need for certifications. You just need to be a badass surfer! Surfing instructors can do well for themselves by travelling, surfing, meeting people who are interested and want to learn, and then offering their services.

Plus, let’s be real… you’ll get laid. A lot.

You won’t earn as much as a scuba instructor, but you’ll be getting paid to surf and travel at the same time which is probably the coolest thing ever! I’m a big fan of surfing and hoping to spend a year or two getting a hell of a lot better in the future. If you are looking for cool jobs you can do while travelling, this may be for you.

There are lots of resources for finding potential gigs. Surf Travel Jobs is an excellent starting point.

• $500 – $1500 per month.

Wanna know how to pack like a pro? Well for a start you need the right gear….

These are packing cubes for the globetrotters and compression sacks for the  real adventurers – these babies are a traveller’s best kept secret. They organise yo’ packing and minimise volume too so you can pack MORE.

Or, y’know… you can stick to just chucking it all in your backpack…

20. Buy A Place and Rent It

If you have been working for a while, you may have some savings. Rather than blowing it all on a couple of fast-paced years of travel, invest it into buying a property at home and renting it out whilst you travel (thus living off the rent money).

You can advertise your place on lots of different websites including Airbnb or one of the many excellent sites like Airbnb , and it can very easily turn into big bucks! Pretty soon, you’ll be making money while travelling; so much so that some of my friends don’t even stay at their own place when they return to their hometown.

• $600 – $2000 per month.

21. Housesitting

Sort of a work-exchange-meets-job, housesitting while travelling is HAWT right now. Typically you pet-sit for an extended amount of time, and in return, you are given free rein over an entire house. Housesitting gigs rarely pay, but you can’t really complain as their still jobs that allow you to travel near-indefinitely.

You’ll be getting free accommodation, a big ass kitchen, and the privacy of your own house! This is one of the best ways to travel!

As with all good things, it’s challenging to crack into, but once you gain experience and a resume, you’ll have your choice of gigs. As far as travel work goes, this one comes highly recommended – it barely counts as working!

• A free house!

22. Work as an Au Pair

Au-pairing is one of the oldest travel careers around and is still a great option to save some money and see the world. Personally, kids ain’t for me, but if you are bubbly, happy, smiley and don’t mind cleaning up the misdirected poopoos, then there are plenty of little ones who need a lovely person like you to help take care of them.

It doesn’t always pay… and if it does pay it’s not always much. But you can earn up to 5k a month if you’re happy to travel for work (which, you should be) to teach in some more far-flung lands.

You’ll get free lodging and food and likely some pocket change for the weekend if you’re volunteering in Europe. Being an au-pair is a pretty solid way to get paid to travel and live in a new country.

• $0 – $5000 per month.

23. Hostel Work

Hostel work is one of the best-kept not-so-secret-secrets of the budget backpacking trade . Once upon a time, it was hush-hush, but now not so much. So let me tell you – finding hostel gigs is SUPER simple and hostel work is one of the best travel jobs for backpackers.

Hostel work is one of the easiest travel jobs to get – just ask the hostels you are staying at if they are looking for any help. They will know exactly what this means. “Help” means manning the front desk graveyard shift, sweeping the floors, or most likely minding the bar, all in exchange for free accommodation.

If they are looking for any “help” , they miiight pay a bit of cash, but more likely, you’ll get a free bed and some food out of it. Hostels are one of the staples for travel work and are a phenomenal way to save money while travelling – not to mention free entry into the hostel life shenanigans is a pretty sweet dealer for a lone ranger looking for some buds.

…And bud. 😉

• Usually just a free stay. Maybe some weed money (or weed) if you’re lucky.

24. Bar Work

Similar to hostel work, bar jobs have kept the backpacker going since basically the dawn of time. Often the bar work will be in a hostel bar (mentioned above) but just as legit is finding work at standalone bars.

This is particularly true in seasonal European cities (but I’ve seen it in South America, Australia, Asia… basically everywhere). Alcoholics are everywhere and they need a charming face with a winning smile to pour their drinks dammit!

The best way to find a bar job is just to walk around and ask if the bars are looking for any help. Or, if you’re having a pint somewhere, strike up a conversation with the bartender and get the scoop. A simple inquisition can lead to a lot of opportunities.

Full disclosure though: the booze and babes of the graveyard shift are fun for a while, but a few too many staffies a few too many months later and you’ll find yourself stuck right in a classic backpacker trap. And hungover.

• $800 – $2000 per month

25. Become a Party Promoter/Brand Ambassador

If you are a fun-loving party animal with some social media/writing/promoting skills, then you could be a candidate to score a job as a brand ambassador for a tour business specializing in party-based tours. I’ve met someone who did this for a period; while the money wasn’t always hella tight, the nights of debauchery sure were!

A good option to break into this field is Stoke Travel . Every year, Stoke Travel gives 100+ regular travellers the opportunity to work and travel by volunteering at events or doing internships in their Barcelona and Byron Bay Office.

That’s right. Three square meals per day and unlimited booze. You’re basically travelling for free !

For the right individual, this job promises to be helluva of a lot of fun. (Possibly, too much fun…? )

• Free drinks – $1200

26. Seasonal Jobs

This is a large category that encompasses many different travel jobs. Restaurants, construction, hotels, cruise ship jobs, ski resorts, mining, deep-sea Alaskan fishing gigs, the list goes on! While a lot of these jobs are covered elsewhere in this post, seasonal jobs are worth noting.

You can literally travel the world working, chasing the season (which by the way usually equates to amazingly beautiful weather) and making money when jobs are in demand and at their highest paying…

Depending on the industry, you can end up both in some pretty off the beaten path destinations as well as touristed ones. Or both! The ski resorts in the summer trekking season is usually a much more peaceful vibe once all the loquacious Aussies have packed up shop.

• $1000 – $5000 per month

27. Construction

You can find construction work basically anywhere in the world, however, the right destinations (eg. Australia and New Zealand) pay a mean wage. If you’re operating above board that is.

Otherwise, asking around for something more informal is usually the way to go. If you have construction experience, jump on those work exchange platforms for some cheap volunteering gigs .

Many hostels, farms, and everything in between will advertise their needs in hopes of finding a qualified working traveller. You’ll get food, lodging, and (depending on the project) a bit of money as well. It’ll get you networked too – word of mouth carries!

If you have experience as a plumber or electrician, you can make bank and even land a job where you are paid to travel to and from different world projects. Also, insider tip: traffic controllers Down Under get paid an ungodly amount for literally doing nothing. They usually pick the cutest girl to man the stop sign though – yay, sexism!

• $1200 – $3000 per month but hugely variable depending on your trade and skillset,

28. Transport a Car or RV

Car and RV dealerships or car rental companies sometimes hire people to drive cars to different destinations. Rental companies often find themselves with too many cars in one destination and want to move them to an area where rentals are more in demand. Car dealerships may need a specific car, with specific options or colours, that they arrange to get from another dealer.

While most companies work with full-time professional drivers, there may be some opportunities for one-time trips. The trick with these jobs is getting a car that’s going where you want to go at the right time. You’ll need a clean driver’s license and may need a specialty license to drive RVs, but it’s worth it for a free and rocking RV road trip !

Some transport companies that you may be able to score some delivery gigs with include:

• Imoova is one of the biggest search platforms for relocations.
• Jucy has some nice opportunities on RVs.
• Cars Arrive Auto Relocation is USA based and has some good options.
• HitTheRoad.ca is a well-known Canadian company that offers mostly long-distance, one way, one trip driving contracts for cars.
• A free road trip!

29. Professional Chef

If you have some cooking abilities or some legitimate kitchen experience, you can find a job by asking around at kitchens in hotels, cruise ships, boats, or retreats. Also, take a look into Worldpackers and Workaway as you can certainly find some cook-work opportunities for a free place to stay.

The downside is that you’ll have to work in close proximity to chefs. Chefs are primadonnas. Get in and out of the hospo industry as quick as possible, amigos.

If thou gaze too long into an abyss…

• $1500 – $3000 per month

30. Travel Nurse

Stop right now and listen to me. If you are a nurse, or if you are thinking about becoming a nurse, becoming a travel nurse is one of the single most amazing careers you can get into.

Travelling nurses are usually hired for thirteen to twenty-six weeks in whatever location they choose and all of your travel expenses are usually paid. Housing is usually covered, and due to the high demand and urgency, travelling nurses are paid more than regular nurses. It’s one of the best ways to travel, work and save a stupid amount of money.

Plus, you know, saving lives and all that jazz.

• $1500 – $4000 per month.

31. Flight Attendant

An oldie but a goodie, being a flight attendant isn’t as glamorous as it once was, but in terms of travel friendly jobs , this is a fantastic travel career. It’s really the OG travel job (right after busker AKA a wandering minstrel).

Free flights, long stopovers to explore, and the ability to tweak your schedule to have a few weeks off a month – there’s a lot to like! This is one of the best careers that involve travelling, and if you get hired by a quality airline, this is a job that not only requires travel but can also pay well.

• $1800 – $2500 per month

A new country, a new contract, a new piece of plastic – booooring. Instead, buy an eSIM!

An eSIM works just like an app: you buy it, you download it, and BOOM! You’re connected the minute you land. It’s that easy.

32. New Zealand/Australia Work Visa

Not strictly a top travel job so much as a top place to find a job. Yes, the rumours you’ve heard are true: Australia does have an obscenely high minimum wage (as does New Zealand, albeit not as high).

Depending on where you are from and if you are able, New Zealand and Australia are two excellent countries to get work visas for. The visa allows you to be employed in most industries, but you’ll most likely find jobs in the hospitality, tourism, and agricultural fields. Come Down Under where you can travel and work for a year or maybe two!

However, both New Zealand and Australia’s cost of living is high, so finding a job that provides you with both a room and food will net you some huge savings. The more remote you go, the better you will earn too. (Sheep shearers make BANK… and then blow it all on cocaine and meth…)

Watch out though: not all Ozzies and Kiwis subscribe to the “mateship and fair go for all” mentality they’re known for. It’s not uncommon to get paid a fraction of that obscenely high minimum wage.

33. Ski Resort Jobs

While I mentioned resorts and seasonal gigs before, skiing deserves its own holler(back girl). Ski resorts are notorious for hiring travellers and often under the table. Ski resort gigs can be the best seasonal jobs for travelling.

As an “unofficial” ski resort worker, you won’t get paid much (and you will likely be overworked), but it’s a great way to work hard, play hard, and make some travel friends along the way! Plus, there will always be the skiing/snowboarding perks which are obviously EPIC.

You don’t have to be an instructor though. Many seasonal jobs in lodges or working the lifts are widely available. Oh, and the snowbum life is pretty hedonistic – it’s basically working, partying, and picking up Insta-brand vacayers between your shifts.

• $1000 – $2000 per month.

34. Tattoo Artist

Backpackers love to get tattoos on the road , so there is always a demand for talented artists. And I’ve met some amazing tattoo artists travelling the world and paying their way through freelance work in hostels and backpacker hangouts. Talk about a creative travel job!

The better you get at your craft, the more doors that will open up to you. You don’t even need a gun! I’ve met and befriended some phenomenal stick-and-poke artists who earn money working while they travel.

Plus getting paid by people to inflict large amounts of bodily harm on them really isn’t too bad either!

• $500 – $15000 per month (be prepared to adjust your rates to reflect the country you’re in – ain’t nobody stupid enough to pay $100+ an hour in Mexico).

35. Join the Peace Corps

This is certainly one of the noblest travel jobs on this list and it deserves a mention! Providing a different work and travel experience, the Peace Corps is no joke and essentially makes you an international aid worker in a foreign country.

It’s a two-year commitment, you have very little influence on where you are stationed, and you only get two days off per month.

You don’t get paid much but, hell, you will be earning and you will get paid to travel to somewhere new. And what’s more, is relevant work experience can take the place of a college degree.

Do You Need Insurance as a Working Traveller?

If you are going to be living and working outside of your home country, you really do need to think about getting health insurance. If you have an accident or get sick, then those hospital bills are going to completely nullify any money you’ve earned and saved.

For long term cover, we recommend SafetyWing . They specialise in covering digital nomads and those working outside of their home country. It’s basically a subscription model – month to month payments – on international health insurance without the need to provide an itinerary.

Month to month payments, no lock-in contracts, and no itineraries required: that’s the exact kind of insurance digital nomads and long-term traveller types need. Cover yo’ pretty little self while you live the DREAM!

SafetyWing is cheap, easy, and admin-free: just sign up lickety-split so you can get back to work! Click the button below to learn more about SafetyWing’s setup or read our insider review for the full tasty scoop.

There are so many ways to work and travel; sometimes you just gotta get a bit creative! As long as you are cutting the costs of travel and picking up a job where and when needed, you’ll find a way.

Not every traveling job needs to be a career. Covering your living costs is a fantastic start, and all the skills and confidence will take you soooo much further in life than one simple job ever could.

Taking a leap of faith on a new vocation on the road is fantastic. It’s a step outside of your comfort zone and right into the growth of travel. In many ways, that’s what it means to BE a broke backpacker .

You don’t have to be broke to be a broke backpacker. Nay, being resourceful, willing, and kind-hearted with a good work ethic – that makes you more of a broke backpacker than holes in your undies and lack of consistent showering ever will.

So get out there and work on the road! Start with a shit-kicker job. Then once you’ve levelled up appropriately (and with some ingenuity), you’ll find a job that involves travelling and where you get paid to travel and live in a new country. Maybe you’ll even live in a mini-campervan conversion and start rockin’ the super nomad life. Then, you’re not just hunting for the best travel jobs anymore.

No, that’s a travel career: a whole new adventure!

16 Travel Organizers to Keep Your Luggage & Bags Tidy

The best travel organizers eliminate clutter, bring order to your life, and make packing a cinch.

If you aim to keep your travel gear organized on the go, you made it to the right place. After all, when you’re dialed in, you won’t panic nearly as much over your passport’s whereabouts.

But there’s more to it than safeguarding government-issued documents. Packing cubes, ditty bags, toiletry kits, laundry bags, jewelry organizers, and more each help you maximize your space and ensure you bring what you need and know exactly where to find it.

With that in mind, we looked at all the most trusted brands in the travel organizer space, like Eagle Creek, Nomatic, Osprey, and more to help you pack with intention.

So, if you’re ready to streamline your life on the go, the best travel organizers for your luggage and otherwise are just a scroll away.

Packing Cubes

Packing cubes are one of the most efficient tools to organize clothing before, during, and after any big adventure. With just a few cubes, your backpack goes from a place of anarchy and dissonance to one of order and harmony.

Perhaps that’s a bit of an exaggeration, but by packing well and coordinating clothing to specific cubes, you’ll find your pants, underwear, and that favorite shirt in record time.

Best Overall Packing Cubes Eagle Creek

MSRP : $40 Dimensions : 14″ x 10″ x 3″

Shaped like a pair of laptop cases, Eagle Creek’s pack-it compression cubes expand to fit all your clothing and then zip down tight to make them compact and manageable.

But compression alone isn’t what differentiates Eagle Creek’s cubes from the rest.

Rather, this set completely unzips along the perimeter of the cube for full access to its interior, making packing and unpacking your clothes a snap.

Pros : Durable, lightweight, well constructed, mesh front makes seeing contents easy Cons : Zipper can get stuck when compressing Best for : Travelers who want to make their clothing more compact and manageable

Ultralight Cube Set Osprey

MSRP : $42 Dimensions :  Small (1L) :  7.5″ x 5″ x 2″, Medium (2L) : 10″ x 7″ x 2″, Large (5L) : 14″ x 10″ x 2″

Compared with the Eagle Creek clothing organizers above, you won’t find compression zippers on this ultralight set.

But for minimalist travelers, compression might not be necessary, and the extra materials used to make it work may weigh you down a bit.

On the other hand, Osprey’s Ultralight cube set weighs just 6.3 ounces for the entire three-pack.

Pros : Durable, smushes down next to nothing when not in use Cons : Small for some, top access might make retrieving items at the bottom an annoyance Best for : Backpackers, minimalist travelers, and hikers who don’t want to tote around empty weight

Cubes on a Budget Suited Nomad

MSRP : $35 Dimensions :  Medium : 11″ x 8″ x 4″, Large : 15″ x 11″ x 4″

Buying little bags to fit into your bigger bag might seem silly at first. Maybe that’s your rationale behind not wanting to overspend on packing cubes.

And if you’re on a budget, I get it. But just because you don’t have money to throw around on packing cubes doesn’t mean you can’t get a high-quality set.

SuitedNomad’s travel organizer bags are made of tremendously durable materials with reinforced seams that can handle everyday use and frequent compression. Plus, because they come in a three-pack, you score more storage space for fewer cash than Eagle Creek.

Pros : Lightweight, well made, zippers feel sturdy and robust, double zipper compression saves space Cons : Don’t fully unzip, making clothing retrieval difficult at times Best for : Travelers looking to get a good deal on three good-sized bags

Ditty Bags for Odds ‘N’ Ends

Small bags and pouches, also called ditty bags , help keep small personal items like toiletries, first aid supplies, and repair tools organized and ready to grab at a moment’s notice.

So, instead of rummaging through your backpack looking for that small thingamajig that always seems to get lost, you’ll always know exactly where to find it since you dutifully placed it in your ditty bag.

Best Overall Ditty UltraLite Sacks

MSRP : $19 to $26 Dimensions :  Regular : 9″ x 4″ x 2″, Large : 10″ x 4″ x 3″, XL : 13.5″ x 5″ x 4″

You’ll never know that the best ditty bag on the market is in your pack until you jam some of your travel essentials inside of it and hit the road.

Weighing in at just 29 grams for the highest-volume ditty of the bunch, all your miscellaneous items will remain firmly in one place without adding extra heft.

And because it’s made of high-quality materials like Challenge ULTRA, the Zippered Cube won’t break down in the middle of an adventure.

Pro Tip : Grab a couple of UltraLite Sacks’ zippered pouches and ultralight wallets to add internal organization to your ditty.

Pros : Exceptionally strong yet lightweight, waterproof YKK zipper keeps your battery-powered items safe, comes in nine colors/patterns, easy to reach in and retrieve stuff Cons : Some might consider it pricey for a simple pouch Best for : Backpackers, hikers, and travelers who value lightweight yet durable materials

RFIDsafe Travel Organization Pacsafe Gadget Pouch

MSRP : $119.95 Dimensions : 5.9″ x 10.6″ x 3.5″

In the digital age, travelers have more small objects to corral than ever before.

Plus, many items like passports and credit cards use RFID technology to simplify identification and payment. But that convenience comes at the cost of security. A bad actor could steal your personal information with the right tools, and you’d never know it.

Stop that thief dead in their tracks while keeping your cords, wireless earbuds, and external battery packs in order with Pacsafe’s Gadget pouch. Not only will you gain peace of mind, but you’ll always know where to find your AirPods.

Pros : Made from seven plastic bottles to mitigate plastic waste, water-repellent fabric keeps your gadgets safe, RFID blocking keeps skimmers from stealing your info Cons : Expensive Best for : Digital nomads who seek security and organization

Minimalist Drawstring Set on a Budget Outdoor Products

MSRP : $14 Dimensions : Small (1 L) : 4″ x 9″ x 4″, Medium (5 L) : 5″ x 11″ x 5″, Large (6 L) : 6″ x 13″ x 6″

Ditty bags don’t have to be all flash and pizzazz like the Pacsafe Gadget Pouch.

Sometimes you need a basic stuff sack to cram your necessities into. Thankfully, Outdoor Products’ three-pack of color-coded drawstring bags wrangle all your gear without fuss.

And because a set is made up of three sizes, you’ll have a bag for items as small as a comb to as big as camp kitchenware.

Pros : Inexpensive, lightweight, simple, lifetime warranty Cons : Lose storage space at the top due to drawstring Best for : Campers and hikers who want to keep their areas and backpacks organized without spending a bunch of money

Padded Organizers for Tech & Electronics

Remote work in faraway lands represents freedom. But you can’t work without a laptop, cell phone, and the cords and accessories that accompany them.

Some of you may also need to bring a camera along for the ride.

If you want to protect your investments, padded organizers work like a charm, so we rounded up the best ones just for you.

Padded Pouch for Delicate Electronics Minaal Tech Toolcase

MSRP : $49 Dimensions : 7.9″ x 5.9″ x 2.0″

If you’re like me and you stuff chargers, cables, and earbuds haphazardly throughout your backpack and promptly forget where you put them, you need the Tech Toolcase from Minaal.

This case safely stores everything that makes your gadgets work, so you’ll never wonder precisely where you wedged that laptop charger or external battery.

Ultimately, it’s a great tool to help keep your gear organized, charged, and at the ready so you’re never caught off guard while boarding a plane.

Pros : Made from very durable and strong 150D Bean Chaff, EVA foam protective walls handle bumps and drops well, moveable dividers ensure your gear fits Cons : Price may scare some off Best for : Travelers who need to retrieve all their tech gear in an instant and put it away just as fast

Made for Photography Gear Peak Design Camera Cube

MSRP :  Small : $50, Medium : $70, Large : $90 Dimensions : Small : 12.6″ x 6.3″ x 6.7″, Medium : 12.6″ x 12.6″ x 6.7″, Large : 12.6″ x 18.1″ x 6.7″

Traveling with a camera presents several challenges, with the chief concern resting on how to protect the darn thing.

I’ve packed my camera and lenses into a traditional camera bag, an oddly shaped padded case, and loosely into my backpack. Problems arose from all three. Carrying around separate bags and cases makes travel cumbersome, and letting your camera jostle freely in a backpack hardly inspires confidence.

That’s where Peak Design’s Camera Cube comes in. With three available sizes, you’ll have the space you need for all your photography, videography, and drone equipment. It’s just a matter of accounting for your gear and choosing the correct size.

Pros : Fits in any Peak Design Travel Bag, weatherproof recycled 400D nylon canvas shell protects your sensitive electronics from water, foam lining absorbs bumps and drops, durable material stands up to rigorous use Cons : Odd sizing, smaller cube doesn’t fit in smaller backpacks Best for : Travelers who use Peak Design products already, those with the need for a full-sized photography backpack

Padded Waterproof Laptop Case AquaQuest

MSRP : $50 Dimensions : Sizes available to fit 11″ to 17″ laptops

Arguably, the most important piece of tech in any traveler’s bag is their laptop. But laptops have one glaring weakness: water.

Because rain, snow, and water balloons can strike at a moment’s notice, you need the assurance of a 100% waterproof sleeve that will stand up to rain, snow, and flying latex.

For those who don’t want to risk it, AquaQuest’s Storm sleeve will protect your investment from summertime storms in the city, random April dustings in the high country, and errant tosses from Steve.

Pros : Padded inner sleeve provides additional protection, sizes available to fit most laptops, provides peace of mind in inclement weather Cons : Sizing issues for some laptops Best for : Travelers who know water is in the forecast, anxious types (like me) who can’t afford to replace their laptop

Travel-Friendly Toiletries Bags

Reaching into your backpack only to pull out a shampoo-covered hand sucks. It’s happened to me, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s happened to you.

End such annoyances with one of our favorite toiletry bags on the market. While they can’t prevent all spills — you’ll want to tighten down those soap bottle lids — you can at least confine your mess to a standalone bag.

Our Top Pick Nomatic

MSRP :  Small : $55, Regular : $75 Dimensions :  Small : 10.5″ x 5″ x 1.7″, Regular : 10.5″ x 5″ x 3.1″

Well-thought-out design, quality materials, and sizing choices make for the best organizers you can buy.

With Nomatic’s Toiletry Bag 2.0, you get all three. Featuring a dedicated toothbrush pocket, optional hanger, and see-through internal windows, Nomatic put a lot of thought into their bag.

And with waterproof materials and zippers, water should never leak in, and contact solution should never leak out.

Pros : Cleans out easily, zippers positioned so items won’t fall out when the bag is hung, moveable inner wall accommodates larger items Cons : A bit pricey Best for : Travelers who demand durable products that make sense, minimalists who value every square inch of their bags

Best on a Budget BAGSMART

MSRP :  Medium : $20, Large : $23 Dimensions :  Medium : 9.4″ x 6.3″ x 4.6″, Large : 11.8″ x 7″ x 5.9″

Keeping your gels, goops, toothpaste, and other essential toiletries organized doesn’t mean you have to spend more than 20 bucks.

BAGSMART’s dopp kit for men and women enables travelers to keep all their most crucial bathroom goods safe and secure while on a budget.

Plus, water-resistant materials ensure that clean-up times are minimal when a spill occurs.

Pros : Lots of storage for everything you need, comes in two sizes, inexpensive, works great for on the road and at home, centerpiece unzips for full access Cons : Some quality control issues Best for : Travelers who don’t want to spend an arm and a leg toting their bathroom essentials

Makeup Case Relavel Cosmetic Case

MSRP : $30 to $80 Dimensions :  Small : 10.3″ x 9″ x 3.6″, Medium : 13.4″ x 9″ x 4.7″, Large : 16.5″ x 12″ x 5.5″, XL : 16.5″ x 7.3″ x 12.6″

Makeup comes in all different sizes and containers, which makes it challenging to pack. Plus, there’s always the threat of leakage.

Never fear; with Relavel’s Cosmetic Case, even the most oddly shaped products will fit snugly and securely, thanks to the case’s removable inner dividers.

And with four different sizes to choose from, you can carry everyday go-to items or size up depending on the number of items you need to bring along.

Pros : Water-resistant material keeps liquids in or out, made of durable Oxford fabric, brush compartment in the top of bag keeps them dry, handle for easy carrying, removable frame gives the bag more utility Cons : A tad heavy Best for : Travelers who don’t mind a little extra heft as long as it means they can bring whatever they want

Other Miscellaneous Organizers

By now, you’ve noticed there’s an organizer for just about anything you might need during your travels. But perhaps you need a more niche product — something for a specific purpose that we haven’t covered so far.

You’ll find it here.

Breathable Mesh Laundry Bag Nomatic

MSRP : $30 Dimensions : 11.5″ x 6″ x 1.5″

Finding a place for your dirty laundry can be a hassle.

Maybe you put it in a plastic grocery bag, find an unused packing cube to stash it in for a few days, or just let it hang loose in the corner of the room. I’ve tried all three to varying levels of success.

That’s why Nomatic’s Laundry Bag is so convenient. With a hanging strap, you can elevate your clothes off the floor and make it look like you give a damn for once.

Pros : Extremely packable and compact with a collapsible wire frame, breathable mesh enables wet or sweaty clothes to dry, makes laundry day a breeze keeping dirty clothes separate Cons : Could be bigger Best for : Travelers who are sick and tired of wondering what to do with their dirty laundry

Lightweight Shoe Bag pack all

MSRP : $25 Dimensions :  Regular : 15.7″ x 8.7″, Large : 17.7″ x 9.8″

Like laundry, another item that can quickly become an annoyance while traveling is your shoes.

If you’re the type who likes to get in long walks or strenuous workouts, bringing a pair of sneakers enables you to get that sweat you’re after. But putting loose shoes in with your clothing isn’t exactly the most hygienic practice.

Enter the Shoe Bag from pack all. With a shoe bag, you can isolate your shoes from the rest of your clothing and stop worrying about what you may or may not have stepped in on the way to the gym.

Pros : Lightweight, water-resistant, traps smelly shoe odors inside, comes in two sizes to accommodate most shoes Cons : Handle can tear off Best for : Keeping your shoes away from your tee-shirts

Velvety Jewelry Case Benevolence LA

MSRP : $25 Dimensions : 3.75″ x 3.75″

Every five seconds, a traveler loses a precious family heirloom.

Okay, that’s a made-up statistic, but it feels plausible, right?

Don’t become a statistic, real or imagined, with a compact jewelry case that’ll fit just about anywhere you can think of. It’s how Grandma would want you to protect the family jewels.

Pros : Velvet finish feels good in the hand, each purchase supports Water Mission, keeps your necklaces from knotting up Cons : Very small, but perfect for travel Best for : Organizing jewelry and keeping it in one spot

Discrete Underwear Bag Toplive

MSRP : $21 Dimensions : 11″ x 6.3″ x 4.95″

I don’t know the first thing about traveling with bras, but I imagine their odd shape and the fact they can get crushed make them difficult to pack.

Thankfully, you can wrangle all your underwear, bras included, into a convenient case from Toplive.

With space for up to five bras, eight pairs of underwear, and a bunch of socks, you can centralize your undergarment packing situation.

Pros : Great as an all-around bag for toiletries and underwear, waterproof compartment keeps your dry stuff dry Cons : Some durability concerns, underwear pockets not big Best for : Keeping your bras safe from the rest of your bag

Factors We Considered for Travel Organization

Choosing an organizer is more than grabbing a random bag and jamming your stuff inside. If that were the case, using one wouldn’t make sense. You’d just pile your stuff in a backpack and move along.

To help you better organize, we considered several key factors to help you find organizational bliss.

Travel demands durable yet lightweight materials like the ULTRA you’ll find in the UltraLite Sacks Zippered Cube . That’s why we picked products that use quality fabrics and materials that stand up to frequent use.

Ease of Use

Enough can go wrong while traveling; you don’t need your organizers to become another pain point.

So, we made sure to include products that are intuitive and simple to use. Because if they’re not straightforward, you won’t use them.

For the best example of an easy-to-use product, check out Nomatic’s Toiletry Bag . Its zippers are oriented, so your gear won’t ever fall out, even while hanging.

Padding & Protection

If you’re a remote worker, you know just how important your devices are. Without them, you’ll have a rough time financing your next adventure.

That’s why we included products like Minaal’s Tech Toolcase to ensure your gear remains operational when you need it most.

Dimensions, Weight & Packability

Nobody wants to carry extra weight on their back if they don’t have to. Plus, packability ensures you take up as little space as necessary in the vessel you carry your stuff in.

So, for this list, we included the dimensions for every product. If it’s too heavy or won’t fit in the bag you already own, why bother?

Water Resistance

You never know when a storm will hit and threaten your gear. Plus, toiletries are notoriously leaky.

That’s why we included products like AquaQuest’s Storm laptop case to protect your laptop from sudden downpours and Relavel’s Cosmetic Case to keep liquids from leaking into your luggage.

The most crucial factor for many of us comes down to price, which is why for every category of product you’ll find on this list, we include a range of costs.

Organization isn’t a privilege reserved for the traveler with the most money; it’s a tool for all.

Final Thoughts: Best Travel Organizers

Thanks for taking a look at the best travel organizers on the market today.

By keeping your travel gear organized on the go, you’re one step closer to getting the most out of the space you have.

So, whether you were looking for packing cubes, ditty bags, toiletry kits, laundry bags, jewelry organizers, or anything else, we did our best to nudge you one step closer to organizational nirvana.

Be sure to check back in for all the best minimalist travel and ultralight gear you can find, not just the best travel organizers for your luggage. Until next time, safe travels.

With many jobs requiring frequent travel, some professionals purposely seek out these opportunities ... [+] that afford them the chance to see the world.

My parents and extended family were almost all teachers and educators. With two months of summer off from work, along with plenty of vacation days, they had the privilege of enjoying both their work and traveling around the world.

They were bitten by the wanderlust bug. At family events, everyone would share their most recent exciting trip. My family seamlessly blended their love of travel, exploring new and different sites, with their occupation of teaching elementary, middle and high school students.

Is Frequent Traveling Compatible With Your Lifestyle?

With many jobs requiring frequent travel, some professionals purposely seek out these opportunities that afford them the chance to see the world. During the job search process, it is critical for professionals to consider how much travel is required to perform a specific role successfully. By carefully evaluating the travel requirements, candidates can make informed decisions about jobs that are a compatible fit for their circumstances, preferences and career aspirations.

Extensive travel can disrupt personal and family life, making it challenging to maintain a healthy work-life balance. Professionals with caregiving obligations may find frequent travel particularly burdensome or impossible.

However, for those who have wanderlust, a career that offers the opportunity to get paid to explore new places may be a dream come true. In these roles, accommodations and travel expenses are often covered, while you get to immerse yourself in different cultures.

7. Travel Nurse

Average Base Salary: $114,279

Job Summary: A travel nurse is a registered nurse or licensed practical nurse who works short-term contracts in various locations where healthcare facilities are understaffed. When contracts end, travel nurses either extend their stay at the same hospital or move on to a new location and opportunity.

Qualifications: Travel nurses must complete a state-approved nursing program, an associate degree in nursing or a B.S. in nursing to pursue licensure where they permanently reside. They must then pass the National Council Licensure Examination.

Typically, you cannot become a travel nurse right out of college, as clinical experience is generally required.

The Nurse Licensure Compact allows licensed RNs to practice legally in 39 participating states. If your location does not fall under the NLC, you must apply for state-specific licensure before you begin employment. Some states may fast track temporary licenses.

Qualifications: While there is no specific academic degree or professional experience required to become an FSO, all applicants must undergo a rigorous hiring process. This consists of a written Foreign Service Officer test, a written personal narrative, an oral interview combined with role-playing exercises and a medical and security clearance review.

Diplomats are generally skilled negotiators with outstanding interpersonal skills who possess knowledge of foreign policy and languages.

Digital Nomad

Alternatively, the digital nomad lifestyle offers a unique work experience that comes with the autonomy of not being chained to an office. Like the name implies, it affords professionals with the opportunity to work remotely while traveling freely.

If you are looking for a job change that will be more suitable to your desire to travel, consider freelance projects or finding companies that offer remote positions. A downside to the digital nomad lifestyle is that you will be responsible to cover your own travel expenses, such as transportation, lodging and meals.

Title : Active carbons as nanoporous materials for solving of environmental problems

However, up to now, the main carriers of catalytic additives have been mineral sorbents: silica gels, alumogels. This is obviously due to the fact that they consist of pure homogeneous components SiO2 and Al2O3, respectively. It is generally known that impurities, especially the ash elements, are catalytic poisons that reduce the effectiveness of the catalyst. Therefore, carbon sorbents with 5-15% by weight of ash elements in their composition are not used in the above mentioned technologies. However, in such an important field as a gas-mask technique, carbon sorbents (active carbons) are carriers of catalytic additives, providing effective protection of a person against any types of potent poisonous substances (PPS). In ESPE “JSC "Neorganika" there has been developed the technology of unique ashless spherical carbon carrier-catalysts by the method of liquid forming of furfural copolymers with subsequent gas-vapor activation, brand PAC. Active carbons PAC have 100% qualitative characteristics of the three main properties of carbon sorbents: strength - 100%, the proportion of sorbing pores in the pore space – 100%, purity - 100% (ash content is close to zero). A particularly outstanding feature of active PAC carbons is their uniquely high mechanical compressive strength of 740 ± 40 MPa, which is 3-7 times larger than that of  such materials as granite, quartzite, electric coal, and is comparable to the value for cast iron - 400-1000 MPa. This allows the PAC to operate under severe conditions in moving and fluidized beds.  Obviously, it is time to actively develop catalysts based on PAC sorbents for oil refining, petrochemicals, gas processing and various technologies of organic synthesis.
