Exciting travel opportunity for all wanderlust-driven souls looking to #GetPaidToTravel
It’s a hot summer evening, you lay back on your sofa sipping on your chai while a soap opera plays in the background. Your back throbs from the exhaustion of a 45-minute drive back home from work, and your skin feels dry and clogged. There is a longing inside of you. A profound need to break away from the dullness of routine. A breakthrough, you think to yourself. An occurrence that is to usher you into a completely new and different phase of your being.
Is it the job promotion you have long hoped for? To adopt a cat? Maybe it’s to put your travel boots back to work and go on that dream getaway trip you have always fantasized about. That is what you silently crave; a journey of self-discovery, endless fun and to be handed a life-changing opportunity.
What if you were to learn that a once in a lifetime opportunity is closer than you thought? Because now it is.
We Pakistanis are blessed to live in a land infused with destinations marked by distinct topography, cultures, languages, cuisines and music. It is what makes travelling worth the while. However, one of the foremost dilemmas we as a keen traveler tend to face, is of "EXPENSES". Whether it’s splurging for a close friend’s wedding or grabbing the new iPhone 12 as soon as it hits the market, our travel fund is either squandered or never sufficient.
roomph, a Pakistan-based online travel portal, in their brilliantly crafted campaign, #GetPaidtoTravel encompasses all these predicaments and unravels the perfect solution. Inaugurated as a segment of the company’s official launch, #GetPaidtoTravel has taken the digital world by storm. It is an online competition whereby three lucky winners will be selected on August 14 and be entitled to a grand prize of PKR 1M, free hotel stays, air tickets, unlimited bus & train travel for a whole year.
Apart from creating a frenzy on social media, #GetPaidtoTravel has gotten everyone pinning down their travel fantasies in the most creative and illustrious of ways and has divulged everybody’s inner travel enthusiast that was eager to be let out. The most beautiful take away from the campaign by far is the notion that every individual perceives travelling differently.
