HOT: Blog birthday giveaway!

one planetAs I said recently, it’s been one year since I welcomed my first readers to MEL: HOT OR NOT.

Traditionally the first anniversary gift is paper. So today I have a fabulous giveaway for you thanks to Lonely Planet – one of two copies of Lonely Planet’s beautiful hardback coffee-table book, One Planet (RRP $24.95).

Awesome landscapes, intimate rituals, extreme adventures and moments of connection – One Planet is a celebration of life, curiosity and the experience of travel.

To be in the running, all you have to do is leave a comment by 5pm next Friday 16 April (sorry Australian residents only). I’ll be holding a random draw and will announce the winner on the blog next week. Good luck!

  1. Happy 1st blog birthday, Jetsetting Joyce! I’ve just discovered the beauty of food blogs and yours is one of my fave. I even subscribed for your email updates yesterday. So imagine waking up to the possibility of winning a Lonely Planet book! When travelling through America and Europe this was THE travel guides we used. Excited to see what the new one is like.
