Featured: Wand'rly Magazine + An Interview with the Team Behind CoolWorks.com

The latest issue of Wand'rly Magazine is now live and I am thrilled to have contributed an editorial feature about seasonal jobs for travelers.

I had the pleasure of interviewing a few members of the team behind CoolWorks.com, which is an online space dedicated to matching seasonal and full-time work in incredible places with those seeking a very different idea of what "9 to 5" entails.

Here's an excerpt:

"The website, which launched in the early days of the internet back in 1995, has long been a central hub for temporary and seasonal work opportunities in unique, interesting locations across the United States.

[...] The opportunities on CoolWorks.com run the gamut, from jobs in and around national and state parks to opportunities with adventure travel operators and first class lodging establishments. Short-term jobs or volunteer opportunities can last between six weeks to several months and the site often lists full-time, permanent positions, which are snapped up just as quickly as the listings for temporary work."

For those who are new to Wand'rly Magazine, it is a great online resource for travelers looking for tips, travelogues and practical information. While the magazine's focus is on the full-time wanderer, I find much of the information useful in both the fixed and travel sides of life. Whether you're planning a short trip or building up the courage to leave your fixed life behind, be sure to check out the current and past issues for inspiration.
