I am ready for a long road flight for work with a week- or months-long projects.
Summer – Autumn 2023
Become a part of the Travedding bloggers and photographers team and go on expeditions for unique content to the mountainous areas of Slovakia, Georgia and Armenia
We want to tell the world that national parks and other protected areas preserve not only natural treasures but also beautiful and unique cultural heritage. They protect landscapes and traditions together with the local people, farmers and entrepreneurs.
That's why we have created Travedding — art expeditions through mountainous natural areas with the support of the Creative Europe programme.
In order to tell people about these fascinating places, we are inviting bloggers and photographers to take part in the project.

What will happen?
From April 18 to May 16 we will hold a contest for bloggers and photographers. The winners will take part in art expeditions to protected mountainous areas in Slovakia, Georgia, and Armenia.
Expeditions will take place from July 8 to September 10, 2023. For the selected bloggers each trip will last 7−9 days — during this time they will visit the most significant natural sites and will be immersed in the culture of the regions.
The culmination of each art expedition will be a festival with elements of a national wedding, an event that brings together all the regional traditions. The trip content, filmed by bloggers in each of the locations, will allow people around the world to see the uniqueness of these places.
