Work around the world.... email this discussion to a friend?

ratinaratan (30)4 months ago

Do you like to travel around the world? And if you are working, did you still have an enough time to go for holiday? Ermmm, let me see. I had an experiences as a part-timer worker in 1 of the big company and even I'm just a part-timer worker, I don't have enough time to hang-out with my friends. Actually, I'm a degree student of IT, who will be graduate soon. Hope so, hahaha. Which is means, I will find and get a full-timer job after I graduate, right or probably;p. We need money to travel, hahaha. The point here, I'm the person who love to travel, see amazing places and meet with new people. If I'm working, I will have a very limited time to do what I like. So, what do think or can you give me a suggestions or you opinions on how do I choose or what career that can help me to live out my dream of traveling around the world according to my qualification. Or maybe you have an experience/s of this kind of job, do share with me and the others my lot members who are interested.

Hmm..Quite a dreamer here..huhu..Why don't you try to work as the journalism even though it is not so IT in there but it's worth to try isn't?I know how you feel.One of my friend actually having the similar problems with you but the difference is that she already graduated and got a fine job as a system analyst.Very much alike in IT environment but she really likes to travel.She had said that to be worked in the office is so boring and don't have much time for self-relaxation. Therefore, she quit her job that she had been worked on for about 6 months and start to follow one of her friends to travel around their country.Then after 2 or 3 weeks traveling, she had decided to be a journalist that enable her to travel a lot and at the same time she can make some money with it for her next destination.I hope this kind of past experienced can inspire you in doing a job while travel.Happy MyLotting!

Well you can hope, but given the recession working your way around the world is going to be very difficult at the current time. sad

I am an unemployed IT specialist (a British national living in Germany). I have four friends in the UK who also all work in IT - three are currently unemployed, the fourth has had to morph into a taxi driver. cry

My wife (a Thai national with a university science degree) is trying to find cleaning and cooking jobs. Even part-time jobs are not easy to find.

If you have the possibility of writing and being sponsored by a company in your own country, then maybe that is the way to do it. happy

Sorry for late response because I'm just got back to my hometown..huhu..hhmm..I'm suppose so..Hope you'll be employ sooner..same goes to your wife..There must be some opportunities that you might find in this world..such as like this - mylot here right? And you're doing this right now so there's no doubt that opportunities always there for us and yet we didn't see it. Hope you'll find a good job later.Enjoy your life~

I'm currently traveling around the world. I work where I can and travel much more. I have very little to no money and still travel. It all depends on how many amenities you "need."

Currently I just use different ways online to make money, but if I can get a day job I will for a short period of time.

Mainly, I'm a busker, which is the perfect job for travelers.


ratinaratan (30)  4 months ago

Hello t chortaga. That's quite interesting. Thank you for your response. I do love to travel. Hope someday we'll bump each other.:)

I think it’s beautiful to have a dream in mind. I also had the similar dream like you before. But now I changed my mind. I still want to travel around the world but not to work. I had a few experiences of travelling during work period. I did not think it’s same as you travel for rest. I know you mean to work then to make money that can support you to travel. I wish you always keep the dream and have more motivation to work hard.
For the time being I don’t want to travel too far because of the money and the time. I just wish I can manage weekend trips around the UK.

if you don't mind please visit my travel blog.thanks.http://blossom-iwanttoseetheworld.blogspot.com/?zx=6f3e43efee71b9e6

I also like to travel all over the world but untill now i still didnt got the chance to fullfill my dream.The only place that i got to travel is in my country right now..Im only 20 and i need to find a stable life and stable financial for living.I will do it someday when the right times comes.It is hard when it comes to making a career decision.You can be a lecturer after you graduated from that field.Lecturer is a good carreer and get to experience many holidays also.


ratinaratan (30)  4 months ago

Owh..You're the same age as mine..Yup I guess there key to it is to find a stable job and good money. And really hope that when the right times comes I'm still eligible to travel.haha.We never know what's going to happen after this.Me as a lecturer?hehe..I'm afraid that there will no one in my class.haha.Because I'm not good in teaching people and I can get mad really fast.haha.But anyway thanx for shared it with me.Huhu.

Well, whenever you want to travel, I think you WILL have to spare you time to do it.=) Just same as I am, I enjoy traveling around the world, visiting points of interest and meeting new people. Hmmm, if you ask for suggestions, how about your weekends??? Do you still have to work during weekend? Well, because you're an IT student, and if you are looking for a job with relation to traveling around the world, I think it will be tough decision.=) Unless you are Tourism student. But I believe, however, you will have vacation between your work. Just use it as efficient as you can. And good luck for your study!


ratinaratan (30)  4 months ago

Yea.Most of it is about time and money.Thank you for your concern.Enjoy mylotting~

Hi ratinaratan. It is very simple. After graduation search for employment in any of
the foreign countries and if you succeed ...that's all. You will be travelling from country to country via many other countries. Further if you could be able to get your life partner from other country you will have still more chances to go around the world. I wish you will get your ambition fulfilled.

Thank you for the opportunity.

BEST OF LUCK.


ratinaratan (30)  4 months ago

Thank you. I'll work hard to achieve it. Or perhaps just get a partner from other country that always travel for their works.hehe.That would be easy peasy right?hehe..But I also need to try harder for my own sake.Anyway thank you for shared your ideas.Nice one.huhu.Enjoy your life~

I am a foreigne languge major student,and i just want the job like you,without time and place limits.

I think you are more likely to get the job that you said.As you learn IT,you just need the computer with you and you could go around the world...
