Finding Work on your Travels

It’s always nice to have some form of money coming in when you’re travelling, and if you don’t manage to find any form of work, you may have to cut your long vacation short. Most people who are going on a gap year will save a significant amount of money beforehand, but some find that this money soon runs out.

If you’re fortunate enough to be travelling in an English speaking country like USA or America, you may be able to pick up agriculture work like farming or fruit picking. This is something many travellers do when spending time in Australia, and there are plenty of opportunities out there.

Retail jobs can also be a good option, but again you may need to be able to speak the language to land a job. There is sometimes paid aid work in various countries throughout Africa and Asia, and this is another way of earning money but you’ll also be doing something you can be proud of. Many British people spend time as English teachers in Asian countries, and this is another option, and the good news is you rarely need a degree to be able to teach English abroad.
