Technology has made it possible to work from any location for so many roles. If you have the desire to travel and explore the world, what better way to fund your nomad lifestyle than finding a job that you can do on the road. Providing you have internet connectivity, you can work from any destination and create a flexible career for yourself. Read on for creative, fulfilling jobs that you can do from anywhere.

Remote or digital nomad?

There are several routes for working on the go. You may be employed full-time by a business but work remotely, or you might be a freelancer, working with multiple clients. The former obviously offers more income security, while the latter offers the freedom to take on jobs you’re passionate about and change your focus regularly to keep the work interesting. As a digital nomad, you’re responsible for the hours you work and the clients you take on, but you’re also in charge of your own taxes and pension, so it’s important to do your research into the regulations in the country you’re living in.

Freelance writer

Whether you’re writing blogs for businesses, advertising copy or creating articles for SEO, there are plenty of freelance writing opportunities if you’re someone who enjoys getting creative with words. All you need is a laptop and an active internet connection and you can work from any location. Building up a strong portfolio is the key to getting clients, so consider the type of writing you want to be doing and build your portfolio around that to attract the write clients.

Wedding photographer

Weddings will never go out of style, and no matter where you are in the world, there will be couples who need someone to capture the beauty and joy in their special day. If you have a talent for photography, creating a career as a wedding photographer offers flexibility and can be a lucrative job opportunity. With this job, you need creativity, excellent people skills and strong time management, but you also need great self-promotional skills to get your name out there. Naturally, you’ll need a high quality camera and lenses to get started, as well as a tripod and memory cards, but you can build your kit as you grow your business.

Programmer

Programmers are in high demand, and they’re perfect for remote work. Software developers and programmers write code to enable computers to perform different functions, from allowing people to games to using business software or apps. As a programmer, you need to have strong problem solving skills and patience, as well as be an excellent collaborator and communicator. This industry pays well so if you can develop the skills needed for in-demand programming languages, it could prove to be a fantastic way to earn money while you’re travelling.

Virtual assistant

A virtual assistant works on administrative tasks for business owners, and the scope can vary from data entry and typing up documents to scheduling meetings, responding to emails and updating website content. It’s a job that can be tailored to your specific skills, so if you’re better at the administrative side of things or website work, you can offer a unique set of services for your clients. As more businesses shift their work online and create remote companies, they need help with the administrative side of running a business, and as a result, VA services have been growing in demand.

Translator

Got a gift for languages? Translating is a great freelance job if you have strong knowledge of a second language. From Upwork and Fiverr to dedicated agencies, there are various ways to find translation work, as well as various industries where this skill set can be useful, such as for marketing work or in a legal setting. You could find yourself translating marketing materials, presentations or online product listings, as well as books, technical documentation and so much more.

Online tutor

Tutoring is an incredibly fulfilling career choice and there are plenty of opportunities available. You can teach English as a second language, which is one of the primary job options, or specify a certain skill such as maths or science. You could also parlay your own career background into teaching subjects such as coding or SEO. There are job opportunities for all ages, whether you want to teach early years through to adults looking to build their skills, and with video conferencing software, it’s never been easier to teach remotely.

Social media management

PR agencies can be expensive, particularly for small businesses and entrepreneurs, and not everyone has the time to manage their own social media channels for advertising and marketing. Outsourcing social media management has become a popular option for many businesses, and it’s a great job for digital nomads. You can offer hourly fees or build monthly packages for businesses for a set number of social media posts, and it’s a wonderful job if you’re tech savvy and love to be creative.

The opportunities for digital nomad careers are continually growing so identify your skills and create a career that’s built on what you know best. Working remotely offers so much freedom and flexibility, and with hard work and perseverance, you can develop a fulfilling job in an exciting foreign country, or work on the go and travel the world.
