        My first thought when I read this was, "Professional hitchhiker."
 That used to be a possibility some time ago, just hitchhiking from place to
 place and finding odd jobs or temporary work in whatever town. I even
 considered it myself at one point, but marriage makes that not an option.
  But on to serious ideas.
        There *are* places that pay you to move cars from place to place. 
 You get to travel and get paid for it. The downside is, you have to *really* 
 like driving.
        Hmm. Outgoing, great personality, needs a challenge, loves to travel
 and doesn't mind independent . . . sounds like all of the prerequisites for
 a top-level sales and marketing executive, especially in a multi-level
 marketing organization. Maybe Avon, Amway, Christmas Around the World, or 
 Tupperware, just to name a few of the better-known examples.
        Good memorization skills? If so, theater might be an option. Then she
 wouldn't have to write her own material, so it wouldn't be quite as radical
 a step for her.
        Well, that's my off-hand advice, which I guarantee is worth at least
 what you paid for it. If it doesn't perform to your expectations, feel free
 to return it for a full refund.
