Excluding teaching
Unpaid time off is also great … as long as I don’t have to work like an American 72 hours a week … 6 days a week with ½ week of vacation … I want to explore working without the ball and chain!!!

sure, plenty of them.
most are "self employed" for example a lawn service, you could take winters off. a ski instructor you could take summers off.
or some sort of professional service, you set you own hours, work until you have enough saved up then take a few months off.
or you could be a "temp" worker. depending on your skills you could make decent money.
I heard about a retired dentist who travels the country in a big RV, gets into a town and finds a practice that needs help for a few months at a time. He's basically a "temp"

A teacher. By the way, most people work 40 hours a week, 5 days.

You can be independent contractor as a real estate agent, or insurance agent. You set your hours.
You can be a tax preparer at H&R Blocks, where you only work 2 to 3 months a year.

Being an accountant is seasonal. Various temporary agencies let you choose your schedule. If you like traveling, you can be a travel agent and work from home. Or work as a guide for traveling agencies. When you are young, the possibilities are endless.

Most harvesting jobs are seasonal. Many construction jobs are seasonal. You could do contract work on short term contracts and only take contracts when you want to work. Of course you would need some marketable skills and you did not mention anything about what you can do.

Teaching. . .you'll have about 2-3 in the summer, and at least a day or two off each month. Plus you still get paid when you're not working!

A Teacher. Especially an elementary or middle school teacher. High School teachers put in a little extra time after exams and whatnot.

The only thing I can think of is working for yourself. That way you can take off when you wish to or when the business dictates you can.
