The rise of remote workers, location independent lifestyles, and online work has made it easier than ever to untether from the desk and get on the road. And remote, flexible work isn’t just on an adventurous employee’s wish list. Hiring managers are looking to fill the skill gap and meet the demands of workers who want more flexibility in where they work. According to the 1,000 hiring managers surveyed in Upwork's Future Workforce Report, 59 percent said they're using freelance and contract workers and predict that number will increase 168 percent over the next decade. Whether you want the freedom to hike on a random afternoon in your own area, or hit the road and fulfill your bucket list, you can earn as you go and support your wanderlust.
