'Best job in the World' winner's job to end on New Year's Eve | 'Best job in the World' winner Ben Southall is packing his bags as his contract as Hamilton islands' caretaker comes to an end on New Year's eve. Southall, 34, from Hertfordshire, beat more than 36,000
applicants to become caretaker of tropical islands around the Great Barrier Reef
in Australia for six months for which he was paid 74,000 pounds. "It's been amazing,
it really has been truly wonderful and I've had such a good time," Sky News quoted
him as saying. "I think I've been one of the busiest people on the planet even
though a lot of people think I've been sitting in a hammock doing very little,"
he added. Meanwhile, Southall is set to go around the world as a Tourism
Queensland
salesman after his stint gets over. From January 1 he will work as Tourism
Queensland
ambassador, where he'll tour US, Europe, Asia and New Zealand , along with other
former Best Job candidates. His new 18-month stint will involve working closely
with Tourism Queensland 's 14 international offices and speaking at high profile
events in Japan , South Korea , China and Europe. |
