Orla Corrigan's resume and passport are about equally full.

Originally from Ireland, the 26-year-old has worked as a promoter, event planner, fashion stylist, TV extra, model, au pair, teacher, and freelance writer in countries across the world, funding her travels with these odd jobs.

Now, she's adding travel blogger to her list, sharing her jet-setting, job-hunting adventures on Travelorlabout in the hopes of helping other people try new things in  new places.

Corrigan grew up in a small village in Ireland “pretty much in the middle of nowhere.”



“I would say I lived a very sheltered life, which I think gave me this push to want to see the bigger world and experience all these things,” she said.



After graduating with a degree in social care in 2011, she took a three-month trip to Zakynthos, an island in Greece. On her second day there she landed a job promoting a beach bar restaurant.
