The ultimate travel video worth $10K

The worldwide search to find Cover-More’s Ultimate Traveller is over.

West Australian traveller Stephen Parry has taken out the top prize for his video ‘You’re Only Young Once’, scoring himself the prizes of a $10,000 travel adventure, a GoPro Hero4 camera and selfie pole.

The competition was launched in May to celebrate Cover-More’s YouTube channel hitting 2 million views and over 1000 subscribers.

A total of 160 entries were received from across the globe with lovers of travel from Mexico, Austria, Australia, Kosovo, UK, Canada, Philippines, USA, Dubai, China, Italy, Bulgaria, New Zealand, Germany, Pakistan, and Brazil all sharing their ultimate adventures.

Each entry was a short video showing some kind of adventure as a ‘Selfie Traveller’, which can still be watched here. Entries ranged from simple camera work to slick editing, some were funny, some were serious, but all were inspiring and showed a keen sense of fun and adventure.

Parry, 24, and his fiancée Jess Valentine share a passion for travelling, photography and film making, with the pair creating their own travel blog Flying The Nest, documenting their adventures together.

“Some of the best memories I’ve created have been from travelling the world with Jess and I love to share with others everything I have seen, learnt and accomplished through film and photography,” Parry said.

“I hope to inspire young travellers to go out there and see the world. Your outtake on life completely changes and there’s so much to learn and experience that your own backyard can’t give you.”

Cover-More also awarded these runners up, who each receive a GoPro Hero4 camera for their awesome entries. Click each name to view their entry:

Based on public viewer feedback and ratings, creativity and entertainment, all winning entries were chosen by Cover-More’s online media team.
