Vocation Vacations

A friend of mine just pointed out the website for Vocation Vacations. This is a company that lets you experience the job you’ve always dreamed about doing. For two days you get to meet and shadow the person who has your dream job. Possibilities include:

Be an animal trainer

Be an ecology tour boat captain

Be a fashion designer

Be a radio show host

Be a wine maker

What I like about the site is that even if you don’t spend the cash to do one of their vocation vacations (though that would be fun), it gives you ideas on professions out there that sound interesting and exciting. These could be areas to research or learn more about yourself from. Which vocation vacation would you choose and why?
