Now is the time for some shameless self promotion on our site. Or should I say shameless begging and grovelling.
As you may know, Dave and I are trying desperately to get ourselves into the Geoff the Campervan for the Vantastic Adventure contest at World Nomads. They are looking for a team to drive a Geoff the Van across different provinces in Australia for 6 weeks at a time.
This would be a fabulous way to kick start our next trip. We are planning on leaving at the end of this year, so the timing is perfect to showcase Australia during the Victoria leg. We would just have to leave 6 weeks earlier than planned, and who wouldn’t want to do that!
We have always wanted to go to Australia, but it has been out of our budget. We tend to travel to more developing countries to make our money last. We thought it would be a few more years before we made it Down Under, so when this opportunity came along, we jumped on it!
You would do us a world of good if you visited the WorldNomadsGroup on youtube and give us a vote. By joining the group, you will not only have access to all that World Nomads has to offer, but you can rate our video and others as well. Give us a Love it or Hate it Vote and leave us a message to say hello.
Our username on Youtube is wegobyebye and our video is called Aching For Australia.
You don’t have to join the group to show us love. You can simply have a youtube account to rate it by clicking on the stars below, favorite it (that is if you think it is worthy of a favorite) or leave a comment.
We want to show them at Vantastic that we will be able to give them a lot of publicity and that we will be ready and able to blog, podcast, tweet and promote our time in Australia on the Vantastic Adventure. We will show them that we are an extreme adventure couple that will showcase everything Victoria can throw at us and that we are strong at video editing and having a theme to our documentary.
The more people we can get to our video voting for us, the better.
If you are not a member of youtube, no worries, even a view will help us out.
thanks for all of your support and hopefully in a couple of months, you will be reading posts from us in the Land Down Under.
If you don’t want to go to Youtube, here is our video for your enjoyment.
There are times when shameless self promotion is very much needed!!
It was a pleasure to vote for your video, although I had to join the WorldNomadsGroup to get the vote thru. No problem.
I wish you good luck, and looking forward to your Australia video. You’ll have a lot of fun downunder.
Cheers, Rita
