Now Hiring: Get Paid to Travel Europe and Drink Gin
Photo: cyclonebill/FlickrThose looking for an internship next year can still apply to spend the next six months traveling Europe, drinking gin, and almost certainly recovering from hangovers.
ILoveGin, a monthly, subscription-based gin club (think “Jelly of the Month” club but for gin), is in need of an intern — actually, a “gintern” — to traverse the U.K. and parts of Europe, taste-testing new gins, visiting distilleries, mingling with brands and ginspiring ginoholics with their ginscoveries.
The six-month paid internship will not be a full-time position. Interns will be required to work two days per week — though two days binging on gin can certainly feel like a week — and, in that time, visit 1-2 gin joints, be it in Edinburgh or London or Rotterdam.
That said, six months of free gin and free tonic — gotta stay hydrated — seems like a much nicer internship than the one spent filing.
(G)interested applicants can apply on the ILoveGin website. Just know, the competition — and drinks — are stiff.
