The Results: Best Job in the World

I’m back from Australia and just getting over being sick! The day I left Brisbane I knew I was coming down with a cold. I suppose after a week of 19 hour days and constant activity, my body decided I needed a bit of a rest.

I wasn’t the sucessful candidate, and I’m completely happy with the decision. Sure, I would have been thrilled to get it, but I already have the best job in the world with GeekBrief.TV!! I’m happy to be home and getting back to work with regular Briefs, and working on new projects.

The experience was one I won’t forget. I met 15 amazing people. We all got along fantastically and genuinely liked each other I think. At least, I genuinely like each one of them! I got to cuddle with koalas, feed kangaroos and snorkel in the Great Barrier Reef. Everyone from Tourism Queensland was awesome. I don’t think I’ve ever met so many happy government employees before. The staff on Hamilton, Hayman Island and Daydream Island were extremely courteous. The seafood on the islands and in Brisbane was the best I’ve ever had! Seriously…when you go, get some Salt and Pepper Calamari. There’s nothing better.

Thanks to everyone who made this experience happen! Here are some pictures from the trip:

Well done Cali !!

In my view, any one of you would have made the perfect person for the job. Enjoyed following the entire process as well as reading your blogs. TQ (or the artists formrely known as Too …Qute) have done a fantastic job for both, the GBR and yourselves. I am quite sure that for all of you, the second chapter of the best job in the world story will be entitled “the best friendship in the world”
There is no doubt in my mind that great things are awaiting you around the corner and I do wish you the best of luck.

Your trip down under will stay with you for a long time. OZ is has a way of grabbing you and not letting go. If you want to read a really good book on Australia, try In a Sun Burned Country by Bill Bryson. Funny, informative. A good read.

Speaking of books – have you ben able to find the one I sent ??

Hi Cali

The pictures from the Australian trip really look great. Glad you had such a good time and got to some of our beautiful country. Once someone visits Oz, they always want to come back, so hopefully you will get a chance to return one day.

I really hope you are feeling better now, did you get the ebook that I sent you?

Best wishes
Paul

People are willing to have a PhD degree, but what is the best way to get that? I should propose to see for the thesis writing service to order the outline thesis just about this topic from. We tried that and got high degree.
