Travelers' Tips

Many travelers are doing medical studies for work these days. I know of clinics in the U.S., England, Germany, and Sweden which test drugs for pharmaceutical companies. You stay in their facility around the clock from a few to thirty days. Pay ranges from $100 a day in the U.S., to $150 in Europe.

They may be testing a Japanese nasal spray, a new antibiotic, or even a cholesterol drug. Mainly they need healthy people to see how the drug is absorbed in the blood. Since you are considered a "volunteer," the work is completely legal for foreign nationals. Try calling around hospitals in major cities to find who to contact. Alan, Manchester, England

How to Get Time Off to Travel

Quit your job--the quality of your work has probably slipped so far due to your preoccupation and scheming to get time off, you are about to be fired anyway. Lene M., Århus, Denmark
