Free tickets to bus yourself all the way around the South Island of New Zealand.
These tickets are for a Kiwi Experience hop-on-and-off bus ride that lasts for a full year, once the journey has begun. (See www.kiwiexperience.com for more information). The general, round trip of the South Island ticket has to be started before January 2007, and the special scenic route of the Milford Sound Overland pass has to be started before December 2006. The tickets have a combined value of 1,000 kiwi dollars. All clear? Ok
Now, as you may know, nothing comes for free. You have to earn my trust that you will have a wild time, brightening minds and truly absorbing the beauty around you.
Here is what you have to do:
1) write me a haiku (Poem of 3 lines, with the following syllable structure: 5,7,5) with reflections on travelling
2)Write a short story that includes a natural phenomena, or something phenomenal happening
3)Send me your favourite image from the internet, and tell me why
4)Pledge something that you will do at some point in your life to better humanity/the world.
And that is not all. When you have finished your travels, you must bring to me or send me 5 things that made your trip worthwhile.
I’m going to Australia in early November, which is why I am not able to make this trip. I myself won these tickets by dressing up in a Kilt, with a Persian shirt on, an Indian waistcoat, and an Afghan Hat on top, so you too will have to do something pretty extraordinary to get these tickets.
Send your entries to: Jouseman24.at.hotmail.com
All entries must be in by November 9th. I’ll let you know shortly afterwards.
I will be the omnipotent, omniscient judge, so what floats my boat is what goes. For the sake of justice, I’ll probably involve my flatmates, and other-minded individuals in the decision process.
So good luck, god speed, may you travel freely and for free.
