When it comes to travel, we believe people are interested in more than just the latest gear and reviews of ludicrously expensive resorts. We know that not every female is in search of the world's perfect facial. And that people without trust funds travel too.

Win a “Van-tastic” Aussie Road Trip from WorldNomads.com

You, a partner, video equipment, the coolest van ever and adventure travel in Australia. Sound good? Then get ready to enter the “Van-tastic Adventures” contest from WorldNomads.com!

Seven teams of two will be selected (one for each state in Australia) to travel for six weeks documenting every bit of the exciting adventure. You’ll be flown from anywhere in the world, given the keys to the super-cool van shown here, get free access to the state’s top attractions and you won’t even have to fork over the cash for petrol.

Did I mention the van will be stocked with camping gear and everything you need to make a stellar documentary of your trip? Think video camera, laptop, editing equipment and wireless broadband access.

After you and your travel buddy finish your six weeks of travel you’ll be given two weeks’ free access to a nearby Global Gossip internet café. Here you will put together your three to five minute mini-documentary to share your “Van-tastic Adventures” with the world. The group with the video voted the best by the travel community will win a whopping $10,000 and two domestic flights from Virgin Blue!

To enter you will need to create a video lasting two minutes or less which introduces your team and upload it to the World Nomads YouTube group. Be sure to show off your engaging personality, your lust for travel and prove that you can go beyond the typical holiday home video.

Each destination has a different application time and travel time. You can find out more on the contest web-site. The first two legs of travel, Queensland and New South Wales, are currently open for application.

So get your best intro together and upload that video! You may just find yourself with one cool van, lots of adventure traveling and the ability to tell the world about it. Oh, and being $10,000 richer doesn’t sound too bad either!
