#Five High-Paying Jobs For People Who Love To Travel

Finding a high-paying job that requires or encourages frequent travel isn’t easy. Most of these kinds of jobs are low-wage and rely on a passion for travel more than anything else. This means you need to do a lot of job sifting to sort the good paying jobs from the bad.

Luckily, there are some pretty high-wage travel jobs out there. In particular, jobs that employ workers on a contractual basis require that those individuals make moves in several different locations. After all, they need to go where the money s located, since it’s not usually all bundled up in one location. But that’s hardly a trouble for any of the travel-hungry job seekers out there.

As with most other areas of employment, those with an advanced education have a leg up. If a person wants a good job that pays well and involves extensive travel, they should be prepared to put in the work necessary to reach that kind of position. At a minimum, prospective employees should expect to earn a bachelors degree to work these kinds of jobs. But when you think about it, it s not really asking for much, since thousands of other jobs have those same prerequisites. These jobs have the added fun of letting workers travel frequently, and all over the world, too.

So really, what is there to lose? There are jobs on this list that allow people to help others, a job that lets curious minds meet and study different people and their cultures, and a job that lets the truly travel-determined fly all the time, and even stay in new places free of charge! Plenty of variety fis available in the high-wage travel world, so it’s definitely worth the time, money, and effort to work towards these careers.

Having said all that, here’s a look at these careers in detail. Those not particularly interested in a great deal of travel should take a look anyway. These jobs are interesting for other reasons as well.

5. Anthropologists And Archeologists Median Salary: $57,420

These workers study the culture and development of societies all around the world. Archaeologists focus on studying relics from the past, and combine those findings with what’s known about the past to create a more in-depth understanding of an older culture.

Both jobs include fieldwork that requires workers to go to new and remote locations, usually for 4-8 weeks. Anthropologists’ fieldwork requires far more social interaction, however, as archaeologists focus on studying relics from the past, minimizing the need to interact. So, depending on your preferences, one would be better for you than the other.
