If the idea of driving around Australia, filming and blogging cool things sounds appealing for six weeks, you may be in luck.* The Van-Tastic contest from WorldNomads is now open. The winners for each Australian state (there’s 7 of them) get flown in from anywhere in the world, handed the keys to a van and pointed in the right direction. On top of all that, there’s $10,000 up for grabs between those seven sets of travelers, based on who creates the best videos.
