I do have experience with this, but my case is different, as I work from home at my day job, so it’s nothing for me to just hit the road and work while traveling. I know that’s not an option for everybody.
I’m not sure what your skillset is, but here are a few options:
- Freelancing: Utilize your professional skills (writing, design, coding, consulting) to work remotely on platforms like Upwork or Fiverr.
- Remote Work: Many companies offer remote work opportunities that can be done from anywhere, including an RV, as in my case.
- Workamping: Work at campgrounds or RV parks in exchange for a free camping spot and possibly a stipend.
- Selling Products Online: Create and sell your own products on Etsy, eBay, or Amazon. This can include handmade crafts, vintage finds, or RV-related products.
- Photography and Videography: Sell your travel photos and videos to stock photo websites or create content for YouTube and monetize it through ads, sponsorships, and merchandise.
- Blogging or Vlogging: Start a travel blog or vlog documenting your RV adventures and monetize it through advertising, sponsored posts, affiliate marketing, and product sales. However, this can take time to build up and is becoming harder and harder.
- Online Tutoring or Coaching: Use your expertise in a specific subject area to tutor students online or offer coaching services in areas like fitness, life coaching, or business.
- Mobile Businesses: Operate a mobile business from your RV – a mobile salon, pet grooming service, food truck, etc.
