Dream job alert: if you've ever wished you could get paid to satisfy your wanderlust (and I mean, who hasn't?), you're probably going to want to apply to the New York Times's latest job opening.

As Cosmopolitan reports, the newspaper is looking for a new Travel Writer at Large for its "52 Places to Go" feature, which spotlights one awe-inducing location throughout the world each week. Of course, they need a writer to go to each location and report on it, which is where your travel obsession comes in.

"We are seeking a correspondent who will go to every destination on our list and tell us the story of each place and the story of life on the road," the job posting reads. "The ideal candidate is a permanent student of life and astute documentarian of the world. This person should have a well-worn passport, the ability to parachute into a place and distill its essence and to render a compelling tale with words and images."

Other qualifications include previous media/publishing experience, documentation of your travel experience in writing or on social media (you knew your on-point Insta account would come in handy at some point), and the ability to commit to a full year. Um, SIGN ME UP.

According to Refinery29, only 24 hours after being posted, the job already has 2,400 applicants — but if you think you have what it takes, don't let it deter you! You can apply on the job listing page, where the application is available until Tuesday, October 31.
