Travel Adventure Contest

If you could help someone to realize their dreams would you? Well here's your opportunity. My name is Anne Marie and I am currently in 7th place in the Biggest Baddest Bucket List competition. My dream is to explore the world and share my experiences through writing, photos and film. 

If I win the My Destinations Biggest Baddest Bucket List, I will do just that, travel the world for six months as a travel writer with all expenses paid!

My entry includes a travel video about Hampshire, England, a blog entry about a hike I took on a footpath in Meonstoke last year, and three travel photos from that hike. Please check it out and do watch the three minute video to learn more about me and my passion for Hampshire!

There are 33 days left to vote, so I need to step up my game if I am to make it into the top 5. To vote: Go to My Destination: Hampshire page, do watch the three minute video to learn more about me and my passion for Hampshire, then click on the social media share buttons in the green box next to my video as many ways as possible and voilà, you've cast a vote for me. The top ten finalists (5 by popular vote and 5 selected by the judges) will be flown, all expenses paid, to London on April 20th for the final selection process. That in and of itself would be an incredible journey! 

I have lived and worked in Newtown for the past 14 years and see this as an opportunity to bring awareness to the beautiful spirit that is my town and the loving arms of the towns that surround us. If there is one thing I have learned since December, there is strength in numbers. Thanks for your time and I will keep you updated as to my progress.

"Bethel teachers are not only educating students, but when society lets kids down, it’sRead More teachers who step in to fill the gap." Explain to me how an average salary of $60,000 per year for working 183 days during that year and an EXTREMELY generous retirement package (compared to the 240 a year the rest of us have to work) considered "society letting them down"?
