5 Ways to Live Through Travel and Never Worry About Money

5. International Courier

Many large online retailers use tourists to deliver goods within a few days. Travelers who are returning home from a trip or heading off on vacation are tasked with delivering items.

A traveler planning to fly home must provide their flight and personal information on a dedicated delivery website or the retailer’s site. The store then assigns a package (usually gadgets or clothing). Upon arrival, the traveler is met by a service employee, and the payment for the item plus a delivery bonus is transferred to the traveler’s PayPal account or card.

If you’re traveling by car, you can also earn as a car courier. If you have extra space in your vehicle, you can pick up a load and deliver it to a nearby city, helping offset travel costs.

Potential earnings: It depends on the size of the package and the number of items you can carry. On average, however, you can earn anywhere from $30 to $500.
