How to Become An Explorer by Thomas Carroll

Many people wish to learn how to become an explorer. Unfortunately, not much how-to information exists on the subject. The good news is that it is very possible to become an explorer. In fact, becoming an explorer may be no harder than acquiring a day job.

Some modern day explorers include Benedict Allen, Mark Kalch, Ed Stafford, Robert Young Pelton and John Goddard. There are also several organizations that deal with exploration like National Geographic, The Royal Geographical Society, The Explorers Club, Global Underwater Explorers and South American Explorers, to name just a few.

You can launch your career as an explorer by following these three steps:

First, decide what type of explorer you wish to become.

There are several different specialties available for explorers. Listed below are a few of the most popular. You need to decide which you will specialize in. Determine this by what excites you the most and your current skills. You may specialize in:

Archaeology is the study of humans through environmental information and material remains. As an explorer specializing in archaeology you can search for lost cities, ancient treasure, anomalous archaeological remains and answers to ancient mysteries.

Cryptozoology is the study of animals undiscovered, thought to be extinct, or legendary. Legendary animals include Bigfoot, yeti and the Loch Ness Monster. The Vu Quang ox was undiscovered until 1992. The coelacanth fish was thought to be extinct until a live specimen was caught in 1938.

Anthropology is the study of humanity. Exploring with an anthropological perspective can take one to live with native tribes, participate in ancient and modern cultures, learn about new religions or belief systems or take part in shamanic rituals.

Geography is the study of the Earth. Geographical explorers chart new terrain, attempt to break previous records of distance, speed or height, or search for natural treasures such as oil, gold, coals, fossils, minerals, caves, rivers and waterfalls.

Second, decide how you will make money exploring.

There are two primary ways to earn a living as an explorer. Through content or services. Some explorers discover items of value which they then sell. However, this should usually not be considered as the prime source of income, but as secondary.

A great way to make money as an explorer is to take your experiences and know-how and turn them into saleable content. You can write articles for magazines or newspapers, or write books. You can also sell your content through the internet as digital eBooks or videos on your blog or website.

There are magazines that will pay you top dollar for professional photographs. Stock photography websites will pay you every time someone downloads one of your pictures. Get reprints of your best shots and sell them on your website. As an explorer you should have unlimited opportunities to take unique, exciting photographs.

Once you make a discovery you can take guided tours to the area. Imagine discovering a lost city or a beautiful waterfall. These are things many people are willing to pay top dollar to see, especially if they are invited to go along with the explorer that discovered it!

Other ways to make money as an explorer are through a radio or television show, public speaking or by receiving grants. However, the easiest way to get started making money fast from exploring is to sell your content to magazines, newspapers and through your website. Once you have enough experience as an explorer you may then consider doing guided tours, public speaking, and so forth.

Third, develop the necessary skills and set an exploration goal.

Determine what skills you will need to do your type of exploring. Start with a skill you already have and hone it. Once mastered, move onto the next skill.

Besides learning about lost cities, tribes, ancient treasures or whatever you decide to specialize in, you will also need to learn the necessary skills to survive in the environment in which you will be working, whether it be marine, mountain, desert, jungle, air or cities.

Get good at researching. As an explorer it is essential to have the ability to research, as most of exploration is preparation! The best resource to begin with is an association that specializes in your chosen field. Find the proper association and become a member. Use of its vast storehouse of knowledge will help you achieve your objectives much faster.

Write down your exploration goal. Be specific and date it. Every day do something that gets you closer to your goal. When the time comes, do it!

There really is nothing standing in the way of you becoming an explorer except your own mind. Preparing for a two week vacation takes about the same amount of effort (maybe more) than it does to plan your expedition. Plan and work diligently towards your goal, and sooner than you expect you'll find yourself starting your new career as a professional explorer.
