What are good jobs that involve travel?

• What are some good jobs that involve world travel with good pay and how would you come about getting a job like this?  Thanks

• Answer:

  Airline flight crews, cruise ship or freighter crew, military, photo or print journalist, nature photographer. The people that do the most travel in the company I work for these days are supplier management people - particularly auditors. With globalization, a lot of supplied parts, materials and subassemblies come from far flung places around the world. I had coffee with one guy who just returned from Germany and he was in China, France, and the Czech Republic earlier this year. One of the most in demand fields anywhere would be healthcare - it's the one area where you would be most likely to be able to land a job in a foreign country if you're interested in that. In that case, your job may not directly require travel, but you may be in a position to go out exploring on your own on weekends and holidays. I've been living in Italy for the last 12 years and have had the chance to visit most of Europe during that time. You need to be aware that traveling for a job is not the same as travel on a vacation; it can be a great opportunity and rewarding. It can also be a lot of wear and tear - you really have to have the right personality to be on the road a lot and you don't necessarily get a chance to spend any time sightseeing. You could also consider foreign service (i.e., diplomatic corps). Other possibilities might include oceanography, anthropology or archaeology but they don't necessarily get you in the field.
