2008
Note: Time sensitive if you want to earn a free trip to Iceland!
Via Hjortur Smarason at Marketing Safari I learned of an opportunity for one lucky travel blogger to go on an all-expenses paid cruise of West-Iceland. UPDATE: including airfare to get there! Hjortur explains the opportunity:
They are inviting journalists on their first tour on the 26th of May 2008. I have suggested they invite at least one blogger as well and now I am searching for that one blogger. If you are interested in a four day adventure cruise in Iceland on the 26th of May and are available from May 25th until June 1st, send me an email and convince me you’re the blogger we are looking for. I will need information about you, your network and the readers to your blog (who, how many, where from, age, status etc). My email address is hjortur.smarason (at) gmail (dot) com. Please send me your info no later than midnight Thursday night (May 8th).

Nice
Unfortunatly, not available
Good chance for the selected blogger
bummer, I gather employees of UpTake are not eligible?
Iceland is towards the top of our list of places to visit and the only reason we are not going this year is because our kids want to go too, which always requires a little more advanced planning.
And, did you know Gudrun is a popular name in Iceland?!
Anyone is eligible.
And I had noticed your name. I actually noticed it first as a comment on Happy Hotelier and that brought me to Kango for the first time cause I was wondering if you were Icelandic
It is the most popular girl name in Iceland.
If you need any help with trip planning in Iceland, be in touch. I’ve traveled all around the country with my four kids (maybe five tomorrow).
