Dream Job?

Found this on the BBC News web site.

Queensland Tourism Board are offering a 6 month contract to one successful candidate to live and work on Hamilton Island (population 5000). The salary for the period equates to around £70,000 for approximately 12 hours work per month. That's £972 per hour! As if that wasn't enough the employee will get to live rent free in a 3 bed house for the period, overlooking a palm tree ringed lagoon.

Duties include feeding turtles, watching whales and picking up the island mail. The candidate must also be prepared to keep a weekly Blog and give media interviews. Skills necessary including speaking English, good swimming skills and a love of snorkeling, scuba diving and other water sports.

Sounds too good to be true, surely? I would apply but I don't snorkel LOL.
