I am a Junior at the state university working on my BA in International Business. I would like to get my MA right after I am done here. After that I would like to travel to new countries every week/month. What types of jobs are out there for me?

I do not think people noticed, but I am a business major and thus am only interested in jobs in that category. I do not need to spend ages frolicking in the country I am in, I just want to *see* other countries.

Bloomberg. If you work for Bloomberg you travel 4 days a week, each week, each month, each year!!!

Firstly, business travellers don't really travel to other countries, they mostly travel from a meeting room in one country to a meeting room in another country, get to drink in the international bar at the local hotel, and sleep in a hotel room like the ones in every other country.

You are also under pressure to get the job done. Generally business travellers find the experience tiring and mostly boring (because you are not meeting anyone else except business people).

If you want to work and travel there are a number of options, but few that meet your requirements. English teaching means you could do some short-term contracts in several countries, but it is hard to find a continual roll of these. You can try some business, but really it takes months or years in a place to get the right contacts. Cruise ships might be an option. But generally you won't have a lot of time in each country to do anything.

Some possibilities include working for airlines and hotels. But there are few jobs like this that would really give you the chance to travel.

One option is the International secure courier. You are given a breifcase, it may be handcuffed to your wrist. Your job is to deliver that briefcase to the final destination. Once again, this work is a little hard to come by and a person of no fixed addressed would be highly suspect for this job.

Finally, the only job that would really meet your needs is that of a travel writer. Try some articles now, see how it goes. Then pack your computer and go around writing about many places.

One compromise is working as an English teacher, though you are looking at 6 months per country, but you could go to one place and live there, while travelling to neighbouring countries (so easily going to 6-12 countries a year)
