Thirdhome is like an Airbnb for the Vanderbilts, and now it wants to pay someone to spend the next three months traveling like one. Labeled “The Best Job in the World,” Thirdhome, a home rental service that lists almost entirely multi-million dollar luxury estates, wants to send a digital storyteller on a journey that’d probably make a Kennedy say, “yeah, I did that once, too.”
The three-month contract position pays a peasant salary of $10,000 a month, with all travel expenses included. All the job requires is the will to jaunt between 12 luxurious listings, located literally along the wine hills of Burgundy, the islands of Indonesia and throughout the Americas, and chronicle the journey through blogging, vlogging, Instagramming, tweeting—doing basically everything you would have done anyway, except now you’ll earn $10k and reside in a chateau.
The complete qualifications on Thirdhome’s website also require applicants to be “luxury connoisseur with an appreciation for the finer things in life and a clear understanding of the hospitality industry,” meaning they’d prefer someone who doesn’t consider “ketchup” dinner nor spends their Friday nights watching old Fear Factor reruns.
