Book Introduction
Presented by first-generation travel creator An Si-nae
How to weave travel into your hobby, your career, and your life's purpose!
Essays on the specifics of living as a traveler and the possibilities of work.


Curious's '○○○(This) Job' series is an essay series that looks inside various jobs to show the possibilities of work and the expansion of job fields.
This series focuses on professionals who create and pioneer their own work in a more creative way than traditional professions, and "Travel" is the first volume in this "Work Series"!

Travel creators, including travel writers and travel YouTubers, are currently the most popular occupation among the MZ generation.
What if you could travel as much as you want and earn money while doing it? Perhaps because many people believe there are few jobs that offer a more fulfilling work-life balance, they dream of making a living as travelers.
Many people want to pursue a career in travel, or even if it's not their career goal, they wonder how they can make a good living by traveling.


"Travel" aims to show the potential of travel as work.
I want to show you how you can live while traveling, what kinds of travel-related jobs (N-jobs) are possible, and how those jobs can generate income.
It explores the life of a traveler who makes travel a living, not just for fun.


The author, Ahn Si-nae, is a young world traveler in her 20s and first-generation travel content creator who made a name for herself in the 2010s, when the overseas travel boom was taking place in Korea.
The author, who somehow found his way through travel despite difficult circumstances and poverty, has faithfully captured the joy and responsibility of living a life doing what he loves as a traveler in "Travel."

Travel writers don't just travel and write.
This is how much I earn as a traveler and jobber.
Living as a traveler while working as a travel agent

Whenever I search for my name on portals or social media, these are the adjectives that always follow.
This book contains the story of my struggles as a travel N-jobber (a travel worker who makes a living through various jobs derived from travel, such as planning, reporting, producing, writing, and lecturing based on travel content) for 10 years from the age of 20 to 30, based on my travels, including writing, publishing books, becoming a lecturer, and pioneering the creator market.


I dedicate this book to all travelers around the world who dream of travel, long for a life of freedom, or need courage.

---From "Prologue"

I suffered financial losses while working on various projects.
I covered a portion of the expenses, and I spent a significant amount of time on the project from the beginning until the end, including the rewards.
On the one hand, it was also an opportunity to make myself known.
First, I was able to expose and promote myself through media with high public awareness and influence, such as ‘Wadiz’, secondly, the main page of the portal site ‘Daum’, and thirdly, SBS News (SBS NEWS’ new media brand).
