Call for Entries
We’re making our second magazine here at Pomelo Travel. In this issue, Terra Ignota: Meridiem, we will explore the joy of traveling as a complete sensory experience– how travel teaches you to “embrace the chaos.” The subtitle “Meridiem” (latin for mid-day) encapsulates what we’re aiming for. When we think of midday, we think of a day full of bright sunshine, full color, full expression… an assault on the senses. This issue will be a visual and written expression of that feeling.
Imagine your best travel memories, when you’re soaking up the sounds, colors, smells, cultures, foods, etc. We want to hear about it.
Art Category
One thing that ties most of Pomelo’s team together is our love of creative work. Whether it’s painting, music, poetry, or anything in-between, our love of travel is closely linked to our love of art. Not only does travel give us the chance to see some of the most beautiful creative work in the world, but it also invites a change in perspective that is often reflected in our own creative efforts.
This category is designed to celebrate that perspective change and its creative result. This category is open to a diverse range of creative work – music, painting sculpture, written work – any art that you feel has been impacted by your travel. Submissions must include either an audio, photo, video or text file showing the work, as well as a one-paragraph artist statement submitted. Winners will receive:
Humanitarian Category
One of Pomelo Travel’s values is the stated goal to support rural communities. Although we’ve only just begun to scratch the surface with our company efforts in this regard, we know that some of our service-oriented subscribers have used our alerts in order to fulfill humanitarian needs and goals. This category is designed to highlight these efforts and encourage such endeavors in the future. To enter, participants must provide a written description of their humanitarian trip they took which utilized the flight alerts, as well as photographic or video evidence of the work done to help those in need.
Long Form Video Category
We know that many of our subscribers are skilled videographers. Throughout the years, subscribers have submitted some amazing videos. We want to highlight this talent, and share it with others. Submit your best travel-inspired video. Winners will receive
