Tasmania is a remote Australian island known for its wild nature and unique animals. To promote its tourism, Tasmania has come up with an unusual offer. It has started a program where some Australians can enjoy a vacation in Tasmania while taking on some rather strange jobs. Although these jobs aren’t paid, the tourism board will cover travel, food, and accommodation expenses. Some of the jobs are really unusual. One position is an oyster organizer, which includes cleaning and managing these shellfish.
