Writing exercise

If I can work in a job what I love, it must be a about traveling or hiking. Although I’m not good at traveling or hiking and I don’t even have a lot of physical energy, I still want to work as a tour guide or a tour translator. But as we all know, it’s not easy to do a job what we love, so I feat that I have to make traveling as a hobby. I decide to try to be a salesman because I may earn much money by this way that can support me to do what l love.

Revised

If I could find a job that I love, it would be about traveling or hiking. Although I’m not good at traveling or hiking and I don’t even have a lot of physical strength, I still want to work as a tour guide or a tour translator. But as we all know, it’s not easy to find a job that we love, so I fear that I have to consider traveling as a hobby. I decide to try to be a salesman because I could earn more money by this way to support my hobbies.
