You can be paid to live on an idyllic holiday island with 300 days of sun as remote workers offered parties & FREE rent
AN IDYLLIC holiday island with 300 days of sun is offering parties and free rent to anyone who chooses to live there.
A village in Sardinia, Italy, is inviting remote workers to make the move to the picturesque island as part of a new initiative.
"You'll also experience close proximity to untouched nature, savor delectable cuisine, and explore the incredible nearby beaches," the WFO wrote on their website.
According to Sardinias - a holiday guide to the island - the weather is perfect for those who want to soak up the sun.

The south of Sardinia reaches up to 303 sunny days, with up to eleven hours a day of sunshine.
Professionals and entrepreneurs with expertise in fields ranging from media to architecture have been strongly encouraged to apply to the initiative, as well as professional artists, scientists, and academics.
Guests are able to call the incredible island home for an entire month but can request longer stays if desired.
The adventurous guests pay just one euro (86p) for the rent of the house for the month, as the municipality of Ollolai covers the rest.
They also cover utilities, bills, and service taxes for the nomads but guests will be responsible for any other expenses including food and travel.
Those who decide to take the plunge are offered private housing - and depending on the number of people - could be provided a one-bedroom or two-bedroom apartment.
The WFO explained that the accommodations are not Airbnbs or hotels, but authentic houses.
The first remote worker to take advantage of the offer was Clarese Partis, a 39-year-old software designer from Los Angeles.
During her stay so far, she has experienced picking up fresh ingredients from a local farmers market and said the "food is amazing".
The Work from Ollolai program plans to transform the location into a digital nomad hub, with £17,000 of investment set aside to make it happen.
Hopeful applicants must apply online before the end of December.
It comes after a small village in the Spanish countryside offered Brits free rent for three months if they made the move there.
