Get paid to travel around Iceland in luxury 4x4 and snap the Northern Lights

A rental car company is offering a one-in-lifetime opportunity to explore the ‘land of fire and ice’ in a luxury 4x4 for a week and experience the breathtaking Northern Lights phenomenon.

Fara Car Rental is looking for an amateur photographer to tour Iceland and capture images and videos that can be shared across its website and social channels to help showcase the unique experiences the country offers to travellers.

During the week, the photographer will be free to explore Iceland with its natural phenomena of geysers and hot springs, and view the volcanoes and glaciers that create a landscape that is like nowhere else on Earth. Plus, the successful applicant will be paid around £200 for their time and effort.

The main focus of the trip though is to watch the Northern Lights - or aurora borealis. The trip will take place at the beginning of April 2022, when the night skies are dark enough to see the phenomenon and capture the beautiful waves of light on camera.

The package includes:

  • Free 4×4 rental car for the duration of a week
  • 35,000 ISK (around £200)
  • The chance to hone your photography/videography skills and add to your portfolio
  • The opportunity to explore one of the world’s most diverse countries

The successful applicant also has the choice as to whether to undertake the 'role' alone or take a partner.

For the chance to apply for this dream job opportunity, applicants simply have to head over to the Fara Car Rental website and fill in the application form explaining why they are the best fit for the job.

Applications close at 11.59 pm on Monday February 28 and can be made through Fara Car Rental website: https://www.fara.is/blog/official-northern-lights-photographer/
