Exploring the world can cost a pretty penny, but you can lower the cost of travel — and deepen your experience at each location — by doing side jobs along the way. Here are 10 ways to earn money while abroad。

探索世界可能花費不菲,但降低旅行成本的辦法還是有的,而且,或許你還能通過邊旅行邊打工來豐富在各地的經(jīng)歷哦。下面10個方法就教你如何邊旅行邊賺錢!

1. Write About It

寫游記

Travel writing may not pay much to start, but if you're traveling in countries with a lower cost of living, it may be enough. At first, I was making $10 an article, but after I accumulated more experience, several websites offered me more. The best thing about travel writing is that you can do it from anywhere, as long as you have an Internet connection, so you're not tied down to one place for long。

寫游記或許剛開始賺不了多少錢,但如果你旅行國家的消費水平不是很高,游記稿費也還不錯。一開始,我每篇游記的收入是10美元,但后來隨著經(jīng)驗的積累,其他網(wǎng)站也開始向我約稿。寫游記的好處是,只要能上網(wǎng),你在任何地方都能寫,不會因此耽擱在什么地方。

2. Work in Hospitality

酒店工作

English speakers are needed to greet tourists at hotels and resorts around the world, so if you're interested in the hospitality industry, that might be a good place to find a job. In the short term, you might be able to get free room and board at a local hostel in exchange for a few weeks of work at the front desk。

世界各地的酒店和度假勝地都需要能講英語的人招待游客,所以如果你對酒店業(yè)感興趣,不妨在酒店找份差事。短期來講,做幾周的前臺工作,或許你還能在本地酒店得到免費食宿。

3. Sell Stuff Online

網(wǎng)上賣東西

The country in which you're traveling might have lots of adorable knick-knacks that folks back home would love. For a little extra income, selling local goods on eBay might be a good way to make a buck or two。

你旅行的國家或許有很多小玩意兒深受國內(nèi)人喜愛。想掙點外快的話,可以在eBay上賣點本地特產(chǎn)。

4. Au Pair or Nanny

住家保姆

A friend of mine spent a year as a live-in nanny, or au pair, in Paris. If you love kids, this might be the perfect opportunity for you to live with a local family and learn local customs, while being able to travel on weekends. Au Pair International is one of many organizations that trains au pairs and matches them with families abroad。

我有個朋友曾在巴黎做過一年的住家保姆。如果你喜歡小孩,這或許就是不錯的機會——你可以住到當?shù)厝思依,了解當(shù)厝饲轱L俗,還能趁周末去旅行。國際保姆組織可以提供培訓并為住家保姆匹配外國家庭。

5. Get a Stipend as a Student

爭取學生津貼

Many universities around the world offer scholarships for Masters' or PhD programs, along with a small stipend and sometimes student housing. Although this stipend isn't usually enough to let you live in style, you can always supplement your income by tutoring other students。

世界各地許多大學都會向攻讀碩士或博士學位的人提供獎學金,有時甚至還提供住宿和少量津貼。津貼比較少,不足以保證你過得像模像樣,但你總可以做家教賺外快。

6. Teach Fitness Classes

指導健身培訓

If you're qualified to teach yoga, Pilates, tai chi, or another kind of fitness activity, you may be in demand as an instructor around the world. You might want to look into opening a studio in your home or offering classes at the local beach (especially in popular tourist locations where people are looking for the "Eat, Pray, Love" experience). The great thing about offering classes on your own is that you can work on your own schedule, and you're not tied to a contract, allowing you to take off and travel whenever you want。

如果你有能力教瑜伽、普拉提、太極拳或其他健身項目,那你在任何地方都可以嘗試做健身指導員。你既可以在家開一間培訓室,也可以在附近沙灘上課。(尤其是在 有名氣的景點,那里到處都是期待影片《美食祈禱和戀愛》經(jīng)歷的游客。)自己開培訓班的好處是,你可以自主安排時間,不必受合同約束,只要愿意,隨時都能出 去游玩!

7. Adventure Sports Instructor

冒險運動指導員

You can teach almost any sport at a basic level if you're an experienced practitioner. You might consider teaching surfing or kite surfing, leading mountain biking rides, or teaching basic rock climbing. If you choose to teach an adventure sport, it might be best to go through a company or resort to minimize your liability. Make sure you have good insurance as well。

如果你經(jīng)驗比較豐富,可以嘗試任何運動的基礎(chǔ)指導員,比如沖浪、風箏沖浪、山地騎行、基礎(chǔ)攀巖等等。當然,如果指導的是冒險運動,最好和公司或度假地簽合同,盡量降低自己的責任風險;同時也別忘了為自己買保險呵。

8. Tour Guide

導游

Working with a tour company allows you to explore the local sights while being paid. If you're more active, leading bike tours might be a fun way to earn money while being a tourist。

在旅游公司工作不僅能四處觀光,還能領(lǐng)取報酬。要是你精力充沛,組織騎行觀光會相當有趣!

9. Food Industry

餐飲業(yè)

Foreigners living in countries around the world are willing to pay a premium for familiar food and drink. I know a few people who have made a living as chefs and bartenders around the world, or as restaurant managers. Another friend of mine worked as a wine expert at various vineyards in New Zealand for several months. If working in a restaurant sounds too stressful, a more flexible option would be to offer cooking classes to either expats or locals。

身居國外的人通過喜歡購買自己熟悉的飲食。我認識的人中就有在世界各地做廚師、調(diào)酒師或餐廳經(jīng)理的,我還有個朋友在新西蘭的各大葡萄園做了幾個月的品酒專家。如果你覺得在餐廳工作太累,可以選擇隨意一點的烹飪班,教老外或本地人做菜。

10. Dog Walker

遛狗

I literally JUST saw an ad for a live-in dog walker in London, UK. The position entailed 25 flexible hours a week, and included room and board as well as $100 a week! It's the perfect situation for exploring a new city, especially one where accommodations are expensive。

說真的,我剛剛就看到一個在招英國倫敦家庭遛狗員的廣告,要求每周能服務(wù)25小時,每周報酬是100美元,含食宿!對那些住宿費太高的人而言,這絕對是探索新城市的大好時機啊!

There are a wide range of options for earning money while traveling abroad. Some jobs require you to stay in the area for a while, such as teaching jobs, whereas others are more flexible. Think about what skills you have to offer — many of them are likely to be as in demand abroad as they are at home (or even more so)。

在國外邊旅行邊掙錢的方法非常多,有些職位可能要求你呆的時間長一些,比如教學,而有些則比較靈活。想想自己有哪些技能可以派上用場,說不定出國以后,你的某些技能會變得格外吃香呢!
