Are you trained in yoga, dance or fitness?

Do you like showing others how to move their bodies in a healthy way?

There are so many options when it comes to teaching fitness no matter what country you visit; you could work on a cruise ship, with a hotel chain, guest appear at retreats, be an influencer for brands, or maybe even open your very own studio.

Perhaps you don’t have the training you need just yet - there are countless yoga retreats and fitness studios with training sessions across the world so that you can still make the big move and learn abroad.

Travel Excursions

Work on a private yacht teaching scuba lessons in the South Pacific, or perhaps you’ll open up a surf shop in Costa Rica.

Maybe you’re more of a cold-weather gal, there are plenty of ski instructors needed across the globe. Find your passion and use it to explore the great outdoors, one country at a time.

If there’s something you care deeply about, I promise there’s a way you can make money doing it.

Tour Guide

Would you consider yourself an expert on somewhere in the world?

If your answer is yes, consider making a living showing other tourists WHY you love that destination so much.

Perhaps you start your own tour company, guiding visitors to experience new places. If the answer is no, consider moving somewhere you care deeply about, learning the culture and then applying for a tour guide position.

You could always start by running a small Airbnb to see how you like hosting and sharing information with newcomers.

Social Media Management

Imagine working from a beach bar, and making money by creating social media copy, imagery, and engaging on your clients behalf.

Yes, this is a real thing, and often one of the roles a company is looking to outsource to a professional ASAP.

Finding clients is as simple as joining a few FB groups use the search term “Social Media Management” for this purpose and, reach out to your potential client when a listings go live.

So, are you ready to give up a comfortable full-time job to pursue a remote career and live out your passion?
