What is your definition of a travel or traveling job?
Is it more of…
a) A full-time job with alot of traveling involved? eg: Pilot, traveling nurse, truck driver etc, tour-guide, journalist
b) A working holiday? eg: teaching English, au pair, picking fruits, seasonal jobs in Alaska etc
c) Freelancing while traveling? eg: Doing writing, photography, designing, programming, or translation while traveling.
d) Job in the Travel related Industry – eg: Tour guide, tour bus driver, resort worker, theme park worker, cruise ship jobs etc
e) Volunteer work? – or is this totally out of the picture
f) Travel Agency business? Allows people to travel and run their business at the same time.
Which of the above would you relate more to a “Travel or Traveling Job” or is it a combination of all of the above?
A ” travel” job and a “travelling ” job are not the same thing.
To me, a ” travel” job is one within the travel industry( ie my job) and to me that would also be quite specific to airlines, travel agencies, tour guides rather than resort workers or theme park workers who I would put under “tourism” jobs. I would class these as jobs within the tourism industry because they are based within a stationary tourist attraction rather than within a company that organises travel.
A “travelling” job on the other hand is a bit harder to define. To me it would mean a) a job you partook in while travelling and probably in a field that you were not planning on staying in ie seasonal jobs in Alaska, fruit picking or b) a job that required you to do a lot of travel, ie a travelling salesman or perhaps a truck driver.
I would not call a freelance job ( ie photography or designing) a travelling job , it just so happens that for a period of time you might be travelling whilst doing it but at the same time you could easily be doing any of those jobs whilst staying in one place. Hence its simply freelance not travelling.
