Do you dream of escaping the day job and travelling the world? Here's how you can make it a reality.
WeRoad is currently looking for a new group of travel coordinators to join its team as it gives a lucky few the chance to jet across the globe with all expenses paid.
The adventure travel company is looking for applicants that are passionate about all things travel and meeting new people - could they be searching for you?
Here's everything you need to know about applying for this incredible jet-setting opportunity.
Co-Founder of WeRoad, Erika De Santi, said: “WeRoad is all about the adventurers of the world; those that want to make unique experiences and really push themselves outside their comfort zone.
“Travel Coordinators play a huge role in bringing our trips to life. They’re not only on hand to provide unique insights into our destinations, they’re a key part in making our trips so unique. That’s why we’re on the hunt for Coordinators that want to push themselves outside of their comfort zones just as much as the adventurers they’re leading.
“Are you ready for a summer that never ends? Come join the WeRoad community.”

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
