Branched covering maps between Riemann surfaces

What is an example of a branched covering map between Riemann surfaces of infinite degree? i.e. something like a branched version of the exponential map $exp: \mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{C}^*$. Thanks!

Is a positive degree self map on a Riemann surface homotopic to a holomorphic self map?

Let $S$ be a compact Riemann surface and $f:S\to S$ be a continuous self map of positive degree. Is $f$ homotopic to a holomorphic map on $S$? Motivation: I had intention to consider this question ...
