Many who have to travel for work wouldn't classify it as "fun". I know, at best, when I traveled to trade shows, it was ok. Mostly it was a grueling 2-4 day trip that included a lot of setup, lugging stuff around, and work, work, work during the show.
I'd say it's much better to have a job that pays well, and that you can take a lot of time off.
I have my own small business, and have prioritized travel and relaxation over the last 15 years. I used to work 350 days per year. I now work about 75 days a year at my business, and an hour a day or so when I'm in other countries.
