Hi Dan,
Thanks for your input. Actually I keep watching job postings, and within that, pipeline patrol, but most of them require 1500 PIC time with experience in complex airspaces and low level flight, CPL and IR, and usually they hire locals (they provide no help in relocation). But in a general sense I'd absolutely be interested in such pipeline work (if I'd meet the requirements - but I'm afraid I don't). So, again, the best would be to find a place where I could work as a glider/motorglider instructor and go from there.

Stay on your journey, keep working on ratings and building time. Your description of an acceptable life style is quite that of a popper by American standards. I have a CFIG and ASEL AMEL Instrument. I get letters in the mail monthly asking me to come flight instruct for commercial operators(ASEL work mostly), there are many other flying opportunities which pay much more than this. This would be a great opportunity to take and then move on to a higher paying job and enjoy soaring for a hobby rather than a job.
Just an alternate $.02
