In a world that is becoming increasingly interconnected, many individuals are redefining the traditional boundaries of work and life. One such inspiring journey is that of those who combine a passion for teaching with a love for travel, creating a lifestyle that transcends geographical constraints. The big question is how Do I travel and teach?


Crafting Resources for the Road

The journey begins with planning and resource creation. I dedicate time to developing engaging lesson plans, activities, and digital materials that can be accessed from anywhere in the world. These can be sold on Teachers Pay Teachers or there are companies who will employ you casually to make resources. It also helps that I enjoy doing this!




Working and Saving

To fund this nomadic lifestyle, I understand the importance of financial stability. As I don't have a property or loans to pay off I am able to. Work intensely for a few months at a time and allow these funds for the next leg of their journey. This approach not only provides financial security but also allows for extended periods of travel. With the teacher shortage at the moment, it isn't hard to find full-time or casual work.


Teaching Online: Anytime, Anywhere

With the rise of online education platforms, you can tap into the power of the internet to connect with students around the globe. Through virtual tutoring sessions, they maintain a consistent income stream while immersing themselves in various cultures. The flexibility of online teaching allows for a harmonious balance between work and exploration, as lessons can be conducted from the serene beaches of Bali or the bustling streets of Tokyo.



The story of combining travel and teaching is one of embracing the world as a classroom. Through careful planning, resource creation, and leveraging online platforms, globetrotting educators have turned their passion for teaching into a global adventure.
