Make Your Trip: 10 Destinations, 1000 Bucks!

May 16th, 2007  |  Published in India & Around, Living, Nature & Wildlife, Projects, Sports & Adventure, Travel  |  6 Comments

Well folks, fel­low trav­el­ers and adven­tur­ous blog­gers — this is going to be a chal­lenge for sure!

While I am sure it’s really easy to spend 1000 bucks on a sin­gle des­ti­na­tion : here’s some­thing to think about. Can you make the same amount last for 10 des­ti­na­tions? Sounds impos­si­ble? But then we’re all crazy peo­ple think­ing up and doing crazy things, so why not another crazy idea?!

Fel­low blog­ger Sathish K, who has wan­der­lust flow­ing in his veins, and a few oth­ers have come up with this fun travel idea and the details are here.

o Start Date: 10th June 2007 Morn­ing (Sun­day)
o End Date : 24th June 2007 evening (Sunday)

Some details:

• Each team con­sists of two mem­bers
• You have Remotest vil­lage in a state is a must visit.
• Far­ther the dis­tance of travel from start­ing point more the fun.

So there you go!

- 3,166,414 sq. km
– 500,000 vil­lages approx­i­mately
– 1000 bucks per per­son
– 15 days
– 10 des­ti­na­tions
– 2 per team
– 1 race

And of course you can take pic­tures, videos, write about it and hope­fully when all the teams come back from the trav­els, there will be loads of fun sto­ries to share! No win­ners or big prizes for now — it’s a blog­gers ini­tia­tive so it’s for pure thrill and excitement!

But the hunt is on for spon­sor­ships. If you think you can spon­sor some­thing or help in some way do con­tact k.sathish at gmail dot com.

And please do spread the word around. Link to this post or write your own post! The more pub­lic­ity, the better :)

UPDATE on May 23: Sathish informs me that they’ve man­aged to get spon­sor­ship from oktatabyebye.com who will be spon­sor­ing the 1000 bucks and also t-shirts for the par­tic­i­pants. And of course, photos/videos will be expected at the end of the journey :)
