Long term this is the best answer for pure travel flexibility. Many healthcare professionals offer long, hard days, but you'll be able to cluster multiple days off with something like a 6 on, 8 off schedule.
None of these offer gap year options, but are good longer term things to aim for if travel is something you really want in the future. Both offer the time and financial power to take advantage of the off days.
Going on tour with a band or any other traveling performance. You can usually get a job selling merch with either no experience or even some basic retail experience
I’m a travel nurse and love it. I choose where I want to work, what I want to make and the company pay for your housing and meals. It can get tiring though but you get to see so many new places and meet new people. Pay is good!
I’ve also been a traveler for about 5 years now. I love it as it’s the best option in the nursing industry. However it’s just allowed extensive domestic travel.
I hope to land a remote job so I can travel internationally on my own terms eventuall
Ski/snowboard instructor. Lots of countries where you can teach. I spend my summer in New Zealand as ski instructor although I’m used to winters in Europe.
You don’t have to be an ex racer or something to become an instructor as long as you are a bit on intermediate level.
My family of five travel full time. My husband is a software engineer and works remotely. My brother does freelance work as a graphics designer and is travelling in Asia for several months.
I got a Working Holiday Visa to live and work in New Zealand for a year. Best decision I ever made. Allowed me to travel to Fiji, Japan, Australia and Malaysia while working there. Took about 30min to fill out the online application and 18hrs to be approved. If you’re US Citizen, there are working holiday schemes for a bunch of countries including Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Singapore and South Korea among some others.
