Necker Island – providing a full insight including establishing if food has improved

Buenos Aires – reviewing the Four Seasons following its major refurbishment

Miami – assist in updating LTI’s Destination Report including checking out the new Metroplitan by Como, the Fisher Island Club’s major refurbishment and visiting the freshly opened Roberto Cavalli Restaurant

They seem to do fine on their own. I, on the other hand, am starving for just this type of opportunity! ;)

All you have to do is sign up for a $400 annual membership and you can apply for the dream job. Quite the deal.

I'm basically cheap and care very little about having the best of everything, so maybe someone can help me out: is it really fun to be 'discerning' to this level for months (let alone a year) on end? I think my give a damn would be busted within a few weeks if I even had a clue or cared to start with. I guess I won't apply.

Strong barnyard odor detected here as well.

If its genuine, for addicts like many of us here (myself included) - can you imagine the year after being done with it? that would be pure torture

Dream TR Job?
 
Well all I needed to was to give my email and I could apply. Not sure about the rest of you.

As for the torture part, I would think of it as a year where you earn points and miles like no tomorrow. Heck that is life time status money in 1 year for several hotel chains. A true FTer will know how to utilize this to the max imo.
