Free Travel from World Nomads: National Geographic or Oz Road tripping

June 18, 2009

Online travel site and travel insurance extraordinaire World Nomads has travel promotions out there now offering free travel opportunities to qualified, interested, and adventurous applicants. The first is a potentially prestigious opportunity to work on a travel documentary with National Geographic in Vietnam, and the other is a ‘Vantastic’ filmed road trip down under in Australia.

National Geographic (free) Travel Documentary Scholarship

First, World Nomads along with National Geographic are offering a very valuable and extraordinary for blossoming world travelers, film makers, and lovers. This unique and valuable opportunity for free travel is a travel scholarship that gives the lucky applicant the ability to travel on assignment to Vietnam (my future neck of the woods) to aid in the making of documentary which will be under consideration for a TV broadcast on National Geographic itself.

Vietnam valleyThe lucky winner will get flown on behalf of World Nomads to Vietnam to meet up with Buffalo Tours . before continuing onward to the scenic Mai Chau Valley where doctors will spend their time setting up temporary health clinics to treat the hill tribes.

The documentary will be taking place between August 22 and September 2, with the application deadline set on July 4. The application process is fairly intensive, but for good reason due to the great free travel and career opportunity World Nomads is giving applicants.

While obviously a not very robust free travel opportunity that offers an opportunity to a lot of people, it’s definitely something to consider seriously if you’re a young creative. And props to World Nomads for their support.

So check out the application page and find some more details if you’re interested. Story via Voluntourism Gal
