Pack your bags: We’ve found the job of your dreams (and they’re hiring)

Katie Mythen-Lynch

It’s the age-old question: take a year out to travel the world or get a head start on the career ladder?

It’s a very grown-up decision to make, particularly when there are serious pros and cons to consider all ’round. But what if you could do both… for FREE?

Well, travel company Busabout is looking for two travel addicts to do just that; experience Europe to its fullest while producing regular travel-themed vlogs and documenting your trip on social media.

If selected, you will be embarking on the trip of a lifetime; from idyllic strolls along the Seine to visiting ancient castles in the Czech Republic, claiming the top of Europe in the Swiss Alps to sailing the crystal clear waters of the Adriatic coast.

You’ll spend five months traveling continuously, between late April and late September 2017, island-hopping your way to the most stunning Greek sunsets, partying it up in Ibiza and having a stein (or three) at Oktoberfest.

All travel expenses will be covered, including accommodation costs, excursions and a daily allowance for food. There’s even a fee for successful completion of the project!

All you need to apply is a creative mind, a valid passport and experience in adhering to deadlines for content.

There are two positions on offer, here’s what Busabout are after:

Job 1: BRAND AMBASSADOR

An engaging storyteller
A history lover
A penchant for quirky facts
A knack for writing
An adventurer
A natural in front of the camera
A lover of social interaction
A social media junkie
An incurable travel addiction

Job 2: VIDEO PRODUCER

Sharp attention to detail
Proven video editing skills
A creative mind
An outside-the-box mentality
Good project management skills
Ability to meet tight deadlines
An absolute travel addict
