Lloyd Godson – an Australian Geographic Adventurer of the Year – applied for one of Tourism Australia’s Best Jobs in the World, as the Queensland Park Ranger (https://bestjobs.australia.com/default.aspx?email=p2edm&fb=False).  He was shortlisted from more than 600,000 applications and 45,000 video entries to the final 25.

Update today from Lloyd that he did not get through to the final round:

I just received news from Tourism Australia that I didn’t make it through to the final round of three, so my Best Jobs journey stops here unfortunately. I wanted to thank all of you again for your support and wish I could have thanked you by making it to the finals in Australia. There is not a single Australian amongst the final 18 which is a shame: http://www.australia.com/best-jobs.aspx
