THIS JOB′S A TRIP - Test Drive Their Dream Job By Taking A Vacation

The Travel Channel has announced THIS JOB′S A TRIP - A new reality series which spans the country to give common people the opportunity to test drive their dream job by taking a vacation!

Two complete strangers are taken out of their daily grind, delivered to a surprise destination and test their dream job with the help of an expert/mentor in that particular field. From rafting guide to circus performer to dolphin trainer, THIS JOB′S A TRIP allows people, bored and tired of the same old job, to discover if they really want to pursue their dream career.

THIS JOB′S A TRIP premieres Thursday, April 27, 8:00 PM ET on the Travel Channel.

In the premiere episode, Rich, a construction foreman, and Barrett, a flight attendant, are both considering career changes. The pair looks to Mark Zoller, a successful outfitting and guide entrepreneur in Oregon, to mentor them through the intricacies of running a whitewater rafting adventure company. The experience becomes a life-changing adventure for both as they confront their fears and ultimately face their immediate and long-term futures.
