    Hi,

    Great employment opportunity for the introverts/

    Live on an island for six months for free

    Beautiful surroundings and a furnished 4 bedroom property (rent free) but I think there are no wages attached to the volunteer work. Downsides consist of no television, internet and no other people contact for 3 months.

    I would love it ! Although without internet I cant play my Trivia games or log onto Propertychat:(
    But I would take my Crossword books and my books I havent had time to read and do my reading and Crossword puzzles and I love cooler colder climates !

    Maybe sit by the fireplace with my hot choc and my Sudoku and my own Company for the next 6 months and I would love it :D

    Be good to rent out the PPOR. No rent to pay, ultity bills and I am assuming that food is also provided as well, so a person can actually come out on top.

    Awesome, but the isolation for me is not a good fit.

    Some days... I like the sound of that.

    No internet would be trying, funny how as an older bloke I so attached to it, however it says there's a telephone, maybe an issue with the old dial-up?

    Couple of nice big hard-drives full of movies, plenty of offline games, fishing gear and a dog, sounds good to me.

    Yes could do that for 6 months and love it! As long as I could take the mutts and you have to take a human companion too. Looks like a lot of work to be done though. Most food comes from the garden.
    A good place to write a book or meiditate or just rejuvenate. Looks wild. Not introverted but that would not be hard for someone my age because it's only 6 months.

    Sign me up!
    I dont have a TV now, so no issue. Its been a while since I had no internet, but it will take me about 22mins to adjust.

    And Im not an introvert.

    Just need to convince the wife now.

    I'd do it for sure.. but only if they'd pay us what we currently earn. Can't keep up without a wage.

    Reverse Surival series of voting people to the island! There is a small prison based near the Opera house which they used to send the unruly convicts too. I believe the nickname for the island was called "pitched gut" due to prisoners feeling like their gut was getting pitched due to the lack of food.
