<p>What kind of career will allow one to travel to foreign countries (Europe in this particular place) and spend a considerable amount of the year there?</p>
<p>What should one who's entering college pursue in order to prepare himself/herself for those careers?</p>
<p>Teach...</p>
<p>K-12= Summer,spring break, winter break off. You would need a 4 year degree and get a cert in the field that you want to teach.</p>
<p>Geology is a pretty good career for travel.</p>
<p>My work-study job is in an herbarium, and the bryologist is <em>always</em> traveling. I've sorted mosses he's collected in Alaska, Malaysia, China, Russia, etc.</p>
<p>Public health can also involve a lot of travel, depending on what you do with it.</p>
<p>I'd say teaching is best. You get summers off and you still get a full paycheck during that time. Other jobs like finance and stuff will let you travel too, but mostly you'll just be in hotels, airplanes, meetings, and more hotels - which isn't really travelling at all. Okay technically it's travelling, but that's the crappy kind where you don't actually get to experience much.</p>
<p>International Business/ Relations</p>
<p>flight attendant, consultant, teaching</p>
<p>Buyer, travel writer</p>
<p>Recreation - many outside of the country opportunities</p>
<p>Archaeologist</p>
<p>business (all the language books are sometimes designed particularly for people on business trips)</p>
<p>journalist, news reporter.</p>
<p>for europe, i really wouldn't worry about it since it's so well connected to america. if u can, i think being a diplomate is the best choice (for all geographical areas)
yes, being a historian or art historian is also good. for both, it is likely that u have to make trips to europe to examine primary sources or to examine architecture, etc.</p>
<p>there are many american expatriates in places like uk, france, mexico, but there all the visits to the tropical paradises are brief and not meant for permanent residence usually. interesting trend..</p>
<p>ecologist, journalist, and some kinds of lawyers who have to draft and look over business contracts.</p>
<p>H is Mech E and has travelled the world as a consultant on large scale conveyor operations. Not all glamour tho'. The leeches the team picked up in Borneo were just gross!</p>
<p>business of all kind. um journalism, foreign services, um corporate event planning, travel writer, food/movie/whatever critic, etc etc corporate and international lawyers, politicians</p>
<p>archaeology, geology, ecology, evolutionary biology, conservation biology, trading, imports and exports, petroleum engineering, industrial engineering, international business and finance, military (Navy, Air Force), foreign service (diplomacy)</p>
<p>I would be very wary of including journalism and correspondence because the job market is so ridiculously small now. News companies practically have shut down most of their foreign offices, so its like a death match to get into three major areas: Europe, Iraq, and Israel.</p>
<p>flight steward, pilot, seaman, captain, cruise captain.</p>
<p>THE POSSIBILTIIES ARE LIMITLESS. haha just playing =P </p>
<p>i would say people involved in mncs, journalism, foreign affairs</p>
<p>I would say architecture too, but its really only if you're in a very highly regarded firm (which may take years), and if you are among the top architects in the field.</p>
<p>It's a slightly different question but I'm wondering which careers allow for a great amount of free time (besides teaching)?</p>
<p>
Not really. Most of the archaeologists I know have been working at the exact same site for 10+ years for 1-2 months at a time...not a lot of travel.</p>
<p>My cousin goes around the world to talk to people about her university ;).
Maybe find something like that?</p>
<p>Cruise Ship-
Disney for one hires you anywhere from 3-8 months and then gives you 8 weeks off.</p>
<p>Flight Attendant-
work up to 85 hrs a month so tons of days off</p>
<p>Ski Resort-

<p>Firefighter-
On 24hrs off 3-4 days</p>
<p>Jobs with sports team-
sometimes you only work during the sport season.</p>
<p>Any job at a K-12 school-
