Many Jobs That Involve Travel Are The Best At Providing Fun And Excitement

By Zelma Hurley


When you think about all of the jobs there are, in the country, or world, you find some are dirty and some are just sitting at a computer screen all day. Some cause the person to get very dirty as they are cleaning things. Others will place this person on a chair at a desk or standing at a cash register. Others need that person to run around the country, doing and seeing things that others do not get a chance to do. Those would be jobs that involve travel.

One of those jobs, of course, is as a travel agent. Many people assume all you have to do on this job would be to sit at a desk and send people to faraway places. This would not be true as most employees must go to a few of these places just so they know how and when the best trips are handled. Getting away, while on the job, is all part of the enjoyment of this position.

The salesmen that move from town to city or across the country are known as traveling salesmen. This is a way to do the same thing you do in a store but you are doing it on the road. The trips can be educational as the products or services you represent will lead you into many different locations, all of which expose you to new experiences.

Depending on your definition of traveling, a position as a roving supervisor for a service company, such as a custodial firm or certified public accountant company could qualify. You will need to be on the road for much of the time. Moving from region to region is normal activity for a representative of these concerns.

A long haul trucking professional is certainly on the road a lot. This is fun for the right type of person especially if they do not mind spending days in the seat, manhandling the steering wheel and only getting food at a different restaurant each meal. Hotels, long stretches of yellow lines and a different bed every night could be fun if there is a big pay day at the end of the drive.

Retail buyers are always going to locations to search for products to sell and flight attendants help others fly safely. Traveling nurses are always on the go as they can be in many different places depending on where they are sent. Tour guides must be knowledgeable about a lot of places which means they need to go to a lot of places, before they tell others about them.

Consultants of all kinds are also on the go quite a bit. Knowing all about the latest piece of equipment or process for your industry would require trips to meet with people, or clients, that need to know about them. Being an Au Pair means going where the kids are. Photographers, writers and freelance artists need to be where they are doing their work about and that usually means a trip or two.

The amount of driving a lot of people have to do just to get to work at a desk, is not what is meant when talking about jobs requiring traveling. Many people enjoy the idea of doing this while working. They like the freedom and liberty to move about the country or world and also, in many cases, the fresh air of which that cubicle dweller does not get much.
