In a tent
There was a period in my life when I was working as a student in one of the travel companies, an instructor-guide. The work is quite hard, but interesting, if you know how to do something with your hands, sociable, cheerful, have a sense of humor and a great cheerfulness. Otherwise, it is not a job, but hard labor.
Judge for yourself. It is necessary to know the area of the tourist route very well, not just to navigate what is located, but to know exactly. Features, entertaining and amazing places, entertaining stories associated with these places, to know the places of convenient parking, where there are no huge numbers of mosquitoes, bears and other taiga delights that are not necessary for urban residents. In addition, one must be able to light a fire when it is raining, to dry things in unceasing rain, to cook on a fire, to build a hiking bath, to operate a canoe, to repair a boat engine, to be able to rock-climb and other skills. And not only to be able to, but also to teach others. And all these works need to be done cheerfully and energetically, constantly smiling and joking, so that with their appearance and humor we can cheer on soaked through, frozen to death, frightened tourists. Otherwise, the tour will not succeed and can not see the prize. In general, that's such a job.
