Five runners up will receive a free Bradt Travel Guide for the destination of their choice.

Mark Seall of MapVivo explained “We’re seeking journeys that make us want to pack our bags and go! That means we’re not necessarily looking for exotic or adventurous trips, but we are looking for journals which capture the essence of travel and the rewards it brings – the excitement and experiences you’ve encountered on your journeys are more important to us than where you’ve been.”

The $1,000 first prize can be used against any flight offered by roundtheworldflights.com whose unrivaled team have visited over 90% of the recognized countries on the planet. Bradt Travel Guides is one of the world’s leading travel publishers, with a comprehensive range of over 130 titles covering destinations around the world.
