TRAVEL JUST BECAME FREE !
We are looking for a person stuck, bitten and bruised by wanderlust. A person who is energetic, enthusiastic and a story-teller. A person who can differentiate between the good and the bad, the pretty and the ugly, the mainstream and the offbeat. And survive through each. A person who is friendly enough to meet new people.
A person who is brave enough to explore new places. A person who constantly spams our feeds with good old wanderlust quotes and whose most suggested Instagram hashtag is #travelgoals. The kind of person who when misspells ‘this’ on his phone, it’s auto corrected to ‘trip‘. We are looking for an official travel ambassador for Holidify!
Free Tickets.Free Stay.Free Food. Simple .Get hired and paid to go on a free vacation. Nothing else.
Remember the couple who quit their jobs to get out there and travel and then told you how rough it can be and they have to do odd jobs to kind of pay up through their itineraries? What if we told you there is another way to go through it. We ll do the job, you take the vacation.
If your Facebook photo credits tell you you’re a photographer, your feed calls you a travel addict and the weighing scale, calls you a foodie, but you’re still saving for that one grand trip, then you might be the one we are looking for !
The job is not simple, though it might look so. The job requires a person to travel and truly identify what a good place is. The role will be to parameterise various places according to their beauty, quality, crowd, weather, food, friendliness and a few others. Join us in making the world a more travel-friendly place. Be a Holidify Ambassador and travel for free for an year.
