    So, if you’ve missed my rants on Facebook… or been completely under a rock and didn’t see it in the headlines, Tourism Queensland in Australia is offering up what could very well be the best job in the world (other than the job I currently have, of course… Love ya Paul!).  Here’s the scoop; the successful applicant will be given a 3 bedroom / 2 bath house on one of the islands in the Great Barrier Reef AND paid $150,000 AUD to… *drum roll* explore the islands and all that the GBR has to offer and report back to the rest of the world about your experiences…  yes folks… just the job I (and the rest of the planet) have been looking for!

    So… how do you get this awesome job you ask?  Well, turns out they’re pretty much going to select me… but you’re more than welcome to submit an application too if you’d like.  Check out their official site here and do some reading.  Also, you’ll want to check out this podcast on some more insights into what exactly they’re looking for.  Last, and most importantly, get out your video camera and go to work!  Oh, and speaking of applications, check out mine below… and don’t forget to rate it!! (Although people make contributions of all sizes, five stars is an acceptable rating)

AUSAppBest of Luck!!!
