But what if you could travel and not spend a dime? What if you could even get paid?
但如果旅行可以一分钱不用花呢?甚至可以挣钱呢?
Many would jump at the opportunity to experience new cultures, traverse through beautiful landscapes, and satisfy their insatiable wanderlust。
大家都会乐于接受这个机会去领略新的文化、跨越美丽的土地、满足自己永无止境的旅游欲。
We’ve compiled 12 ways for just about anyone to get their golden ticket to spending weeks, or years, in exotic lands while earning some cash。
下面我们为大家提供了12种方法，让任何人都可以享有在异国体验数周甚至数年的机会，同时还可以挣钱。
1. Become A Tour Guide
1. 成为导游
Leading tours through some of the world's most iconic and historic places sounds like a dream come true. It can offer tons of variety, depending on how you approach it. Do you become a tour guide in one dream place — say, Paris! — and lead hordes of tourists through the Louvre, the Bastille, and the Eiffel Tower? Or do you lead groups on longer trips that go through a series of destinations?
能带团游览世界上最具标志性和历史性的景点听起来就像是美梦成真。带团可以有很多方式，取决于你怎么策划了。你是想成为某个地方的导游——比如说，巴黎!——带着游客们游历卢浮宫、巴士底狱和埃菲尔铁塔?还是你想尝试更长一点的旅程，去更多的地方呢?
Either one can be a solid way to make a living and see new cultures. There are a few cons, though. Guides who stay in one location will likely be working freelance, which may mean uneven paydays and a lack of job security. Some guides give free tours and try to use their personalities to get tips from generous tourists。
任何一种方式都能让你挣钱的同时领略新的文化。但是有一些条件。在一个地方做导游的人通常是自由职业者，这就意味着收入不稳定而且工作没有保障。一些导游选择免费带团，而用他们的人格魅力征服慷慨的游客，获得小费。
Longer-term guides may be lucky enough to get a contract or a full-time gig from a touring company, which adds stability but means they will be the one dealing with all the logistics, planning, and headaches that come with trying to manage a group of cranky tourists for weeks at a time。
长期的导游如果幸运的话可以和旅游公司签订合同或是在公司做全职，这样稳定性较强，但也意味着他们要处理后勤、策划，忍受和一群难搞的游客共度几周带来的麻烦。
2. Go WWOOF'ing
2. 去农场做志愿者
WWOOF, or Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms, is not a traditional business. Volunteers go for a set period to work on a farm with like-minded travelers in exchange for accommodation and home-cooked meals. The terms are flexible with WWOOFers staying as long or little as they want, and the opportunities are plentiful. While you'll have to pay your own way to fly to the farm, once you are there, there are plenty of people who can offer a ride to the next destination。
WWOOF是一个在世界范围内提供在有机农场工作的平台，这并不是一个传统意义上的行业。志愿者和志同道合的驴友们固定时间去农场工作，农场提供住宿和家常便饭来交换。工作条约很灵活，时间长短没有限制而且机会很多。也许你去农场的机票是自己付的，但是一旦你到了那儿，那边有很多人愿意载你一程去下一个目的地。
3. Teach English
3. 教英语
If you're looking for adventure in a foreign land, one of the most accessible and lucrative ways to get there is by taking up a job teaching English. Jobs in Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America are abundant, and most of them do not require that you speak the native language。
如果你想去外国旅行，一个最简便和经济的方法就是找一份教英语的工作。亚洲、中东以及拉美的工作机会尤其多，而且通常不需要你掌握当地的语言。
While not all schools require it, a certification for Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) can make you a more desirable candidate. Salaries can be as high as $36,000 a year in Japan or $45,000 in the United Arab Emirates。
虽然并不是所有学校都要，但是如果你有TESL(英语教学师资证书)的话，会更抢手。在日本，年薪高达36000美元，在阿联酋甚至高达45000美元。
4. Trade Specialty, Foreign Goods
4. 卖特产和外国货
Looking to travel and have a little capital to start with? Consider getting in the import-export trade and head out to exotic countries to find local, specialty, and handmade goods that will appeal to travel-hungry consumers back home. Pick up goods that areas are known for (examples include Italian leather, Mexican hammocks, and Turkish ceramics) as well as one-of-a-kind pieces that can't be purchased by the truck full. Once you are back in the U.S., sell them to stores, collectors, and even eBay for a handsome profit。
