6 Great Remote Jobs If You Love to Travel

If you love to travel, having just two or three weeks of vacation time a year can seem a little bit stingy. With so much to see in the world, a few weeks won’t cut it.

Looking to indulge your wanderlust while maintaining a meaningful career? The range of great jobs if you love to travel spans many industries and can offer meaningful work-from-anywhere flexibility.

With a remote position you may find that, rather than parceling out trips here and there, you can capitalize on travel flexibility that removes many of the restrictions that come with a traditional job. A remote job could allow you to live a digital nomad lifestyle, for example, that’s a more free-flowing way to blend travel and career. Or the goal may be to simply have the ability to take off to another location (near or far) on a whim, without interrupting work or eating up your vacation days.

A 2018 annual survey on flexibility and the workplace conducted by FlexJobs, our sister site, found that 50% of respondents want flexible and remote jobs because they want to travel more often and have the ability to pay for travel. Other industries beyond those represented below can also allow you to travel while earning a living, and working in the travel industry can also be compatible with keeping up you career and enjoying life on the road.
