Travel Photos, ExpediaFindYours, Wonder Round 2


You may have seen us on Twitter asking theplanetd travel blog readers to tweet their favourite travel photos. When were you awe inspired by your travels?We’ve been asking people to tweet those moments with the hashtags #ExpediaFindYours and #Wonder

Why you ask?

Expedia is giving away a trip to Aruba to one lucky person who participates in the campaign by tweeting their favourite travel photos. They have also given us a $250 voucher to give to one of our readers who tweets their photograph with the words #Wonder and #ExpediaFindYours. For more information check out Find Your Wonder. 

It’s a great giveaway, but it is also a great movement by Expedia. Travel can change a person’s life.  Their new Find Yours Campaign embraces everything that travel has to offer. From Finding your Viva like we did when running with the bulls in Spain, to finding our Bliss in India and Harmony in Thailand. You can find travel moments everywhere that you go!

Expedia knows that travel is deeply personal. Everyone is looking for a unique experience and Expedia is there to help each individual find exactly what it is they are looking for.

Your Travel Photos

We love a contest, but we also love to inspire. Nothing inspires more than a travel photo that captures a life changing moment.  Plus, we want to feature the people who took the time to tweet their Wonderous moment. Enjoy!
