A city in China is seeking a "Modern Day Marco Polo" to discover the city's most tourism-worthy places and tweet about them.
It's the latest of various envy-inducing job alerts over the last two years, such as "the best job in China," Shanghai's first male breast masseur, a British water slide tester, a Chengdu panda ambassador, Cathay Pacific's US$360-a-day travel blogger and, of course, the job that started it all, Queensland Australia's "best job in the world."
A picturesque eastern city about 200 kilometers southwest of Shanghai, Hangzhou is now offering someone the chance to be a "Dr. Hangzhou."
The "job," offered by Hangzhou Tourism Commission, apparently demands nothing more than broadening one's cultural experiences over the course of a year and spreading them via social media.
A paycheck of €40,000 (US$51,870) will be provided.
Longmen near Hangzhou is one of the area's most scenic spots.
