Some translators even have opportunities to explore the world and learn new languages while writing about it as a travel journalist. As well as being an interpreter, translators also have other opportunities in the travel industry, like translating books, websites, marketing material, etc.

To become a cultural anthropologist, you’ll have to start beforehand. Usually a bachelor’s degree is required for entry-level and a master’s/doctorate degree is required for advancement.

Anthropologists are required to travel to various areas to understand each culture and may even have to live with different civilizations. This job is more for people who want to experience a new way of living, rather than take pictures with famous landmarks.
