Tourism Queensland, a Province/State in Northern Australia advertised, what they called the best job in the world. Officials with the tourism department of Australia's Queensland state on Tuesday revealed the 50 finalists from a pool of nearly 35,000 applicants for the job — a $150,000 Australian ($96,000 U.S.) contract to relax on Hamilton Island in the Great Barrier Reef for six months while writing a blog to promote the area. The 50 finalists on the shortlist are featured on a webpage here. The submitted videos are really something, but as you watch them just wonder why you didn't submit one for the best job in the world. Imagine living on the Barrier reef for half a year and writing a webpage about your daily activities. One word of warning, I did a travelogue recently and it's not as easy as you think to write a new piece every day. You will need imagination to go with your good looks and new tan!
BTW a Canadian is fourth in the running!
