I love the travel industry. There's certain feelings I get when traveling to a new place and I want others to feel the same way I do about visiting some place new or experiencing something totally different than what I am use to. I currently work in the travel business advertising vacation property and after seeing how beautiful the land is where some of the properties reside, I get this strong feeling of envy for the owners who get to enjoy the beauty of a vacation destination and of the land their homes rest on.
How on earth can I find a job, aside from being a travel agent, or tour director, or cruise ship director, where I can travel to places I love and write about them for everyone else to experience?
Im looking along the lines of maybe a travel magazine who will pay people to travel or even a website?

I know a professional travel photographer. Whilst he takes stunning looking in all different countries other people write about his journeys. Together they publish books about traveling that feature gorgeous photography of great scenery.
Travel guide books have writer that work of them like Lonely Planet and Rough Guides for example. The writer has to write about sights in every location featured and list accommodation that they have evaluated.
There are some websites that writers send in articles for like Escape from America. That features material about living overseas and traveling to places. I think that might be a good way to get to be an experienced travel writer.
