I tried this out when I took a year break to travel. I got gigs from Upwork easily. I was able to limit myself to 10 hours a week and it paid for my travels. What I found was that there are all kind of companies out there looking for all sorts of helps, you just have to be proactive with outreach.

I did it for a year in 2016, met my now wife in Croatia. Invited her to go on a road trip in Norway and we've been together since. Before leaving, I was nervous about missing out on a year's worth of income. But in hindsight, those worries seems so trivial now. My advice to those who are traveling solo is to stay in hostels even if you can afford hotels. It's the best way to meet people wherever you are. And pack light!
