How to make money by traveling?

My name is Baiyun. 19 years old and traveled for six years after resigning. I only brought 375 yuan when I went out for the first time. I didn't expect to leave for six years. All the travel expenses I spent on my trip were earned on the road. I'll just talk about specific ways to get financial resources.

1. Travel for work: This is my first way to earn travel expenses, and it is also suitable for travelers who are not rich at first. After arriving in a city, they can choose to work for a few days or a month or two to earn travel expenses. I will find a full-time or part-time job before I arrive in this city. If I can't find it, I will look for it locally in the future. One of the advantages of working and traveling is that you can stay in a city for a long time, get in touch with local people for a long time, integrate into local life, and get to know the city through these local colleagues. Try to find some jobs that provide accommodation and convenient transportation, so that you can travel around during holidays and breaks. You can look for it on various recruitment platforms, make the treatment clear, be vigilant, and be sure to explain the salary. Don't leave without giving me money, as I did the first time. Finally, I was paid by the public security bureau through online exposure.

2. Travel by setting up stalls: When traveling to various cities, you can set up stalls to sell things while working in exchange for travel expenses. I used to sell trinkets such as sunglasses rings, but now I live in Dali and sell them for one or two months every year. The income is unstable, sometimes high and sometimes low (not as the only source of travel expenses.

3. Make money by hobbies: During the trip, most people will find out what they like. If they like, they will do what they like, such as painting, taking photos, playing guitar and singing, which can be exchanged for economic resources.

4. Travel notes: Write the beautiful scenery seen during the trip as travel notes, which can be submitted/published to various platforms. People who need it will come and make a draft after seeing it (the draft is for the manuscript fee). I also write some travel notes in my own number, and almost all of them will be appreciated by viewers (although not many, it is also one of the economic sources).

5. Photography (this requires some skills): After traveling for a long time, my aesthetics gradually improved and I became a photographer. At this time, you can travel and become a photographer.

6. purchasing: this is the easiest way to earn travel expenses, and it is also a kind of earning a lot. You can sell delicious special food on the trip through purchasing. It doesn't matter if you have few friends. You will meet many people on the trip. Some people will recommend friends to buy it after buying it. This is a way of economic source for long-term sustainable development.

7. Selling photos/participating in the competition: submit the photos of the scenic spots to participate in the competition (the winner will get a bonus, and the bonus will be different in different competition systems. Generally, there are quite a lot of bonuses). You can sell photos on various platforms, such as vision china (it is difficult to sign a contract, which requires certain shooting skills, so it is difficult to get a large amount of travel expenses. It is not recommended that you consider it from the beginning). There is also a platform called Tuchong, which does not need to sign a contract. Xiaobai also took photos with his mobile phone. It's pretty good (but the income is not high, which is a small part of the income source. I uploaded a few photos at random a year ago, and found someone bought them a year later (this income may not be much, but it is better than nothing).

8. Be a team leader/coach: This kind of tour is suitable for the middle and late stages. At this time, you have rich travel experience and outdoor experience. You can apply for a part-time/full-time tour leader from a club, and you can earn money while traveling, such as tour/mountaineering/hiking leader, diving coach, rowing coach, surfing coach, etc. . . . (Many travel expenses are earned in this way)

9. Tourism resources: This is an important thing I am doing. This method is suitable for the later period and needs a lot of resources, contacts and word of mouth. Is to talk to the merchants in tourist cities about low prices (such as car rental, air tickets, hotels, etc.) ) and then give it to people who come here at a price lower than the platform. One thing to pay attention to is to find businesses without routines, and not to have any routines, so repeat customers can develop for a long time.

10. new media: this method has gained a lot economically. To put it bluntly, it is not easy to be a new media (online celebrity) with many fans. It takes luck and talent. You also need to know the rules of each platform, shoot videos and write copywriting. You can do some videos like vlog or Raiders during your trip. I plan to make a travel video in this area next year.

Pay attention to avoid the pit-"travel experiencer", don't you know the name? You can become a "travel experiencer". If you hear that you have to pay to become a "travel experiencer", run quickly and don't follow the routine.

These are the ways I earn travel expenses during my travels, and it is these ways that support me to walk in many cities.
