Travel on the Guardian's Dime
Where: United Kingdom
The Guardian is looking for two people to blog their travels and get paid in the process. It's not exactly a king's ransom, but you do get 2000 quid, a laptop, a camera, and a cell phone. The two slots they have in mind are for a "green," whose trip proposal should be "in line with the rising tide of interest in eco- and responsible tourism. You may choose to base this on where you go or stay, your mode of transport, what you leave behind and how lightly you tread along the way." For the other, known as a "grey" (isn't that a kind of alien?), the Guardian doesn't care how PC your trip is -- go eat baby seals raw and throw DDT into rivers if you want. You do have to be over 50 and "not have outgrown your spirit of adventure." Via Travel Writers
