There are several freelance photographers and writers who travel the world and sell their work to different companies, especially media companies such as BBC, magazines, newspapers, etc.

- Online tutoring- If you are good at something and are interested in teaching, online tutoring will be a good option. You can find different websites which hire online tutors to teach people from across the world in hundreds of subjects.
- Scuba diving instructor- Being a scuba diving instructor will give you a chance to explore the coastlines of the world and their beauty while earning money.
