Why They Suck (and How To Travel And Never Hold A Job)

Ever thought of finding a job that would let you travel around the world (or at least a region!) and get paid for it?

Sounds great, right?

In theory, sure. But in reality, holding a traditional ‘travel job’ is oftentimes more frustrating and annoying than holding a ‘regular job.’

Here’s why:

You typically can’t experience the culture, activities, or people of the places you visit… because you’re busy working (and the work usually sucks)!
Even if you could do these things, you’d be hard-pressed to because you get paid pennies for your hard work.
Even if you made money, you can’t go to the places you want to. You go where you’re assigned or you get fired.

So, if you want to work like crazy and not even get to ‘travel,’ be my guest. Get a travel job.

However, if you WANT to earn a healthy income as you travel on your own pace and schedule, consider becoming a ‘traveling entrepreneur.’

No, you’re not selling snake oil or anything ridiculous like that. This is a simple method of using modern Internet technology to market products on the web… and get paid for doing so.

The products can be in ANY market you choose. A simple visit to Clickbank or Comission Junction will show you how many thousands of products are out there that you can get paid to promote.

Once you’ve found your high-payoff product, you simply promote the heck out of the product for a few hours a day (or per week!) online with some simple techniques like blogging, utilizing facebook, myspace, twitter, and other methods. It’s very easy to learn and simply takes your commitment.

If you get turned off by selling to your friends or multilevel, pyramid scheme marketing (MLM), then becoming an internet entrepreneur could be the perfect solution for you.

So, if you are OK with being told where to go, when to go there, what you do when you get there, and when you leave, then be my guest and get a travel job.
However, if you’ve ever thought about working from an internet cafÈ or from your laptop while anywhere in the world, you may want to consider joining the growing community of underground marketers who make money while they travel by utilizing the internet.

Travel Jobs & How To Make Money While You Travel

Ever had the desire to quit your lame 9 to 5 job, tell your boss to shove it, pack up and start traveling the world?

All of us have had that desire at one point! The thing that stopped you was probably the same thing that stops most people: money.

“How will I pay for my flights, food, lodging, transportation, yada, yada, yada,” you asked yourself.

Don’t let these concerns bother you too much, because there is an underground, growing group of travelers who are utilizing some simple but hidden techniques to make significant incomes while traveling.

Here’s an overview of how we make money traveling and by landing travel jobs:

Underground Travel Income Method #1 – Traditional Travel Job – Hold a job that either a) pays for us to travel or b) is located in the place we wish to travel to. This is the lowest paying and most complicated method of all, but is the most commonplace.

Common jobs that pay for travels are for professional speakers, salespeople, package couriers, flight attendants, travel nurses/doctors, conservationists, cruise ship workers, etc.

Travel jobs located in the places we wish to go to can be any of the above, but also are specific to the location we travel to. There are some FUN jobs overseas that are looking for foreign workers!

Underground Travel Income Method #2 – Travel Writing – Travel writing jobs for magazines are more common than you may imagine. However, there are LOADS of other ways to write as you travel and make money, including blogging, picking up projects from sites like Elance and Guru, and writing travel guides, both online and offline.

Underground Travel Income Method #3 – Selling Affiliate Products – Using a simple website, you can drive online traffic to a product that will be of interest to your online followers. Don’t be intimidated by this! It can be as easy as using your very own Facebook or Myspace profile. Affiliate products typically pay 50, so you can make a very healthy income for selling just a few objects.

Underground Travel Income Method #4 – Filming Your Adventures – If you’ve got the camera out and you’re taking pictures, why not switch it to ‘film’ mode and make money from it? You simply make a video of your destinations using iMovie or Windows Movie Maker, then use your videos to create a customer base!

Underground Travel Income Method #5 – Podcasting – If filming scares you off or intimidates you, you can make an iTunes podcast. It is easier than ever to get listed in iTunes and there’s a HUGE audience of podcast listeners. Simply talk about the places you visit two or three times a week and watch how your following grows… and how your bank account grows!

Underground Travel Income Method # 6 – Ebay – The common misconception about Ebay is that you have to sell a physical product to make money. Here’s the trick: You can set up a fulfillment house to ship your product (or hire your little sister or the neighborhood kid). All you have to do is create your Ebay post from an internet cafÈ and collect the money!

Take any one of these six ‘travel job’ methods, and there are hundreds of travelers all over the world making more money than they would at a regular ‘job…’ and they’re living it up at exotic, world-class destinations. Take your pick, and take action on the ideas here!

Air Travel Management Services – A Complete Experience

Long winding airport queues, security checks, baggage check in, hiring taxi services, hotel check in and out, organizing seminars can all add stress to your corporate or incentive travels. The fact that you have to worry about these issues rather than be prepared for that all important meeting or begin to unwind for a much awaited holiday – is definitely not adding any value to your organization or self.

Air travel can be a memorable experience. That is, if you hire the right service provider to plan and execute for you. A travel agent will merely book your tickets and let you grapple with other concerns. On the other hand, for a complete solutions provider or event management firm, the ticket booking is only a part of its deal.

Your organization can concentrate on its core business activity while the event manager will take care of all your peripheries. For example, if you are hosting a seminar in another city and want to fly your employees there, your event manager can come up with the best dollar value fares in terms of the number of people traveling and time savings needed. So you may end up being pleasantly surprised with the services of a charter plane, within your budget. Pick up, drop, seminar organization, recreation facilities, employee motivation games, or any other surprises all being taken care of by your event manager. Similarly, the same firm can come up with innovative incentive travel schemes for employees and their spouses to make the most of a package.

A complete solutions provider is a good idea to have on hand during uncertain economic conditions. Professionally managed these companies can get you the best deals on the market, save your time and above all make your travel experiences worth remembering.
As more companies in the US realize that travel is not an extravagance but a way to boost employee morale and increase revenues (the revenue contribution vs expense on a trip is 4:1 – msnbc business travel), it makes immense sense to up your business and retreat travels.

So, whether you have to attend an impromptu business meet or go in for a planned leisure holiday – An event planner will get it all done for you, without any problems. Another compelling reason to have one as your partner in business and leisure.

Hire an event management provider who gives you transparency in its deals, is flexible to your routines, gives your budgets, ideas and above all business priority, receptive to incorporate your ideas as well as give you a fair feedback and of course is technologically forward – and you have the best set of people who are going to give you more dollar value for their services than any others.

The deal is you get more than you bargained for at the table. Not just the regular air travel, but a complete experience. A package, where you are concerned with just your business or leisure and the even management provider with your mundane planning.

So why should you rent a travel trailer instead of buying one? Well, there’s nothing wrong with making the investment to buy one, but you don’t have to, especially if you aren’t going to be traveling via travel trailer very often. By renting a travel trailer, you can enjoy the best of all worlds. And as long as your rent your travel trailer from a reputable company, you’ll also have a guarantee of service in case there is any problem with your equipment.

Also, renting a travel trailer is simple, especially in the cyber-age. Just find a website and you can usually click to rent right online. It’s customer-friendly and extremely convenient, especially if you’re a busy mom or dad who is always on-the-go and has little time for holiday planning.

Even if you’ve never tried a travel trailer rental before, you probably have figured out that it’s a great way to maximize your vacation dollars. In fact, it’s like having a hotel room attached to you wherever you go. There’s no worry about where to spend the night, no concerns over the quality of motels and you can even bring along Fido and Fluffy for the experience!

Additionally, you’ll have the flexibility to stay at dozens of RV sites across Nevada that are chock-full of entertainment and fun for the whole family. Many have swimming pools, hiking trails nearby and onsite games and activities. In fact, they’re one of the reasons that RVing has become such a popular “sport” for frugal families and groups of friends. And if you’re someone who just cannot leave your laptop behind, you’ll be happy to know that most campsites offer WIFI especially for their Internet users.

World Reviewer’s Honeymoon Travel Ideas

The honeymoon comes in three flavours. I guess the most popular honeymoon travel revolves around romantic seclusion with your beloved – after all, you may have no idea who you have married, and here’s the chance to find out, and some quiet days on honeymoon after the madness and stress of the wedding will be just what you need. And many a honeymoon has concluded with one or other racing back screaming ‘It’s all been a big mistake!’ If you’re still getting to know your partner and feel still a bit nervous – don’t choose seclusion for a honeymoon!

The Activity Honeymoon

Then there is the activity honeymoon. This is normally booked by men (and best booked through a honeymoon travel agent, not put together by him), and is often an indicator that yes, they are scared on being alone for too long with you in case the conversation dries up or they will have to face some painful truths – so an activity honeymoon keeps everything moving along at a cracking pace, with minimal time left for reflection. Of course, there is always the chance your honeymoon beloved will cut the rope after you have leapt into the bungee void – a quick and easy way out for him, let’s say, as well as you, but you can be comforted by the fact that this is rare.

The Resort Holiday Honeymoon

Then there is the resort honeymoon holiday, normally booked via a travel agent’s package. Hawaii honeymoon anyone? These can often include a bit of the more secluded honeymoon travel type above, but these tend to be at the high end, so if you are on a budget (or he is), then you will end up in the Canaries or Ibiza in the Balearic Isles, with plenty of Worthington Bitter or Budweiser for him to make him feel he’s still dating you (or avoiding you), and comforting international resort food to gather a few recipes for imminent use on your return. A honeymoon cruise falls into the same bracket, though with the added spice of ‘accidents can happen’. Yes, this is how he expects to eat when you get back – all inclusive, four meals a day, a buffet style to break up any meaningful honeymoon conversations, and plenty of lager before sex and sleep on a full tummy. Girls, this is your test – you have a week or two – the duration of your honeymoon – to break him in and show him who’s boss. Insist he takes you out – or rather, take him out – to that quaint local taverna in the village, even if you need to forfeit your all inclusive resort deal for a night or two. Introduce him to Chateauneuf du Pape, flown in at vast expense, and teach him to sip.

If you fail, you are doomed. Start planning your next honeymoon here.
