Jobs can be tedious and boring at times, especailly if you are doing a repetative task over and over again. Most of uswant to do more and have fun at work.

Ben Southall, a Brit charity fundraiser beat over 34,000 applicants to secure the dream job which required to blog out how great the islands are, exploring the glorious beaches and diving among the reef. This pays him a salary of A$150,000 for six months of work.

One lucky couple will be honeymooning for 6 months in the caribbean, the maldives and Thailand while enjoying romantic sunsets and drinking champagne. Unfortunately partners are not supplied with the job.
