3. Hairstylist

You don’t have to work in a salon if it doesn’t fit your busy schedule. Many hairstylists work for themselves, either welcoming clients into their homes, traveling to their clients’ homes, or renting a booth.

Even if you don’t have the required credentials now, you can qualify for licenses quickly, as they’re required in all 50 states.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, you can earn an annual salary of $26,270.

4. Freelance Writer/Editor

In the same vein, you could work as a freelance writer or editor, though keep in mind that the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics says that employment for writers if on the decline, so it may be a little more difficult to find work, especially with a projected 2% decrease over the next 10 years.

Seeing as your work can range from long-term contracts to one-article assignments, working as a freelance writer can offer you the flexibility that you need. You may earn an average of $39,555 per year, according to PayScale.

5. House Sitter/Caretaker

House sitting and caretaking jobs may be the right for you if you plan on traveling while working, though it takes a good planner to pull this off. Start off small in the U.S. and plan your jobs in areas that you want to visit until, eventually, you’ll be able to find international opportunities too.

According to PayScale, you’ll earn $35,603 on an annual basis, but you could also gain a lot of travel experiences if you do it right, which are well worth the effort!
