Being a professional photographer isn't the only way you can travel around the world with a wealthy family — nannies for example can do particularly well. Earlier this year, Sun Online shared the story of a traveling nanny who has been to over 20 countries and stayed in seven-star hotels while working for rich families.

Sarah Kinghorn revealed how her trips are all-expenses paid, from accommodation and food to phone use and activities, and she gets paid $25 per hour on top of that.

Sometimes the jobs also pop up in dream locations.

Last year, Sun Online reported on a nanny job in Barbados that came with a $127,600 salary. Plenty of travel opportunities were offered as part of the role, and the right candidate would also have perks like eating out in Michelin-starred restaurants.
