I just came across a website today touting the Best Job in the World... Apparently, the Queensland Tourism Board is looking for a spokesperson to blog and video blog about how wonderful the Great Barrier Reef is... So they plan to send their spokesperson to live on one of the many islands on or along the reef for six months and make them do adventury fun stuff AND pay them a bundle of cash to do so (AUS$150k).. All any potential spokespersons have to do is sign up and send in a 60 second video stating why they should be selected and what they know about the reef... Then sometime next month, the Tourism Board will hold n online vote where the public will select 11 people who will be sent to Australia for the final interview then the successful candidate will start their 6 months on the island in July... I think this an excellent idea and am definitely going to sign up for it.. You see, I've been thinking long and hard about what I want to do with my life and have decided to go down the route of getting more involved in green conservation, however as I don't have any experience as a campaigner its a bit hard to get into it as a career. I think this'll give me an excellent platform to start of from as more people would be reading what I have to say and this will give me an excellent avenue to express my views on the environment and our place in it... I got 6 days before applications close to do my video so am planning to use my day off tomorrow to prepare the vid.. Please, please, please vote for me next month and I'll owe you all big time!!! Once I post my video I'll make a link on my blog to it so that all u guys can see it... Anyway, signing out n take care n wish me luck!!!
