You love to travel, and it’s no wonder, as the open road offers a lot of adventure. You can also have a satisfying career when you choose one that involves being mobile, such as the ones listed below. Now is the time to create a lifestyle that brings you joy!

1. Freelance Writer

If you love to write, this one is a natural fit. Many leading magazines look for travel pieces, and you can type them on a laptop while on the go to your next destination. When you get there, take time to edit it before submitting it to the publisher. Try to take photos along the way to complement the written content. In addition to writing for magazines, you might submit video content of your time abroad to travel channels. Keep in mind that time zones can affect deadlines when you take your work on the road.

2. Mobile Mechanic

If you enjoy working with your hands and being of service to others, this career could be right for you. Being a mobile mechanic involves helping people stranded on the side of the road or in other places by fixing their vehicles. Working in an auto shop briefly before starting your own business as a mobile mechanic can help you gain experience. Getting an automotive certification can strengthen your reputation, and creating your own website increases your online visibility.

3. Truck Driver

Truck driving is the most well-known road-based career on this list. There are good reasons for it, from steady work to independence. There is a lot to like about a specialized transportation career in Hazmat Trucking, including competitive pay and benefits. Travel to places you’ve never been, with no two days the same, something you wouldn’t be able to do if you were stuck at a desk all day. There are great opportunities for advancement, too, and you’ll be part of the fantastic, close-knit trucking community.

4. Tour Guide

Do you love to learn about places and share your knowledge with others? If so, a tour guide may be something you’ve long thought about doing. What better time than now to start this fun career? It helps to be comfortable talking in front of a group, so taking a public speaking course may be part of your career journey. If you work on the road, your job will likely involve leading groups in different cities and, perhaps, in various countries.

5. Field Service Technician

Do you like solving mechanical problems and consider yourself handy? If yes, consider a career as a traveling field service technician. You’ll visit various locations across the local region, state, or country to fix or install equipment. What machines you work on depend on your interests and specialty, such as HVAC systems. There’s a new challenge at work each day, keeping you from getting bored, and you’ll get to see sights you wouldn’t otherwise be able to if you had a strictly desk job. Being a technician on the move suits someone who enjoys regularly solving problems.

Which one is right for you? Are you thinking about combining your love of travel with a new career?
