Do you know of any jobs that can be done from home, online, or while traveling?

I’ve heard positive things about http://www.couchsurfing.org/.

I assume with a degree in linguistics you could do some sort of editing or possibly translation work?

You could try do some freelance writing. That’s got to be the easiest (if you don’t mind writing), quickest, lowest-risk online money-making opportunity.

Give it a shot, check out www.freelancewriting.com… FANTASTIC website, just start with Morning Coffee, and you’re in luck as today is Tuesday. Good luck!

yould become part of Amazon’s Mechanical Turk

Like @asmonet already mentioned, while I was traveling I did a bunch of translating jobs that allowed me to make money as I went. On the other hand, I was doing thesis translations, and they really took away from the traveling experience.

teaching (if you plan to stay a bit) or translation work, which in theory you could do from anywhere in the world (but in reality you don’t if you’re travelling). Depending on the places you visit, there might be odd jobs for little money that you could do, eg waitress or farm hand.
