Island Caretaker
Tourism Queensland, Australia
This is the best job in the world, or so the press seems to think. You be the judge: how does $100 grand sound for six months of lounging in a luxury beach front villa in Queensland? Your only duty would be to enjoy the islands of the Great Barrier Reef and blog about it.
There is no catch. This is a promotion from Tourism Queensland. Sure, there have already been 9000 applicants (I’m about to be one of them). But hell, a job at Starbucks is probably pulling in close to the same number of applicants in this economy. You choose: make custom coffee drinks for the soon-to-be-canned, or get intimate with a hammock in the land down under.
One lucky duck will actually get this job, starting July 1st. The application deadline is February 22nd, so get moving. Click here for more details.
