Top Ten Jobs If You Love To Travel

The hours are frequently erratic, and the work isn’t always easy, but you’ll get a glimpse of hundreds of cities across the globe during your career. A bonus perk? Free or discounted flights for you and your family.

Exploration geologists help resource extraction companies identify the most profitable places from which to extract natural resources.
