dive in the placid and pure waters of 2,300 kilometres of
individual reefs? And that’s the trade I’m willing to make, and
without any weigh on my heart.#
A match made in heaven.. er, I mean, water!
Exploring the islands
and reporting back
So, here is something I learned in
my graduate degree in
Journalism: no story is alive
unless you share it with the world.
And I think this is one of my
strong suits: to be able to take
raw images and facts and to turn
them into full-bloat crowd
pleasers stories that will entrance
half of the world. And that’s were
my experience in Advertising and
Marketing will come due. There’s
so many ways to report, so why
not choose the perfect one? The
one that will sell more effectively
the wonders of the Islands of the
Great Barrier Reef.
Let me introduce myself. I’m a 29 year old bloke from Lisbon,
the westernmost point in Europe, and I can’t hardly wait to
set my foot in the Islands of the Great Barrier Reef. I’ve a
graduate degree in Journalism and I’m finishing a postgraduate degree in Advertising and Marketing, but those
academic duties pale in comparison with the opportunity that
is the Best Job in the World. To commune with the wild
spirits of Australia and to know, for sure, that only skindipping will allow to feel the plenitude of the majestic blue
waters around the Islands.#
And that’s what I bring to the table here. A will to discover
that great part of our world. And that personal will is only
matched by a great personality that goes along with it. After
all, if there is such a thing life taught me is that only with a
great sense of oneself can one really and truly enjoy
everything nature as to offer in its splenditude.#
So, here you have a Tiago that has been waiting for this job
his whole life. And you have a job that’s been waiting for this
Tiago. Pick me and you’ll see I was born to do this!
So, here are the ingredientes to
the perfect dose of myself:
• great communication skills
• experience in advertising and
marketing
• excellent literary and
journalistic capabilities
• genuine interest in the wildlife
and natural wonders
• readiness for walkabouts
around the island
• honest love of sharing great
stories with others, and
emotions that go along with it.
