Jet Set Zero proudly presents a new audience-powered series: Jet Set Zero – Spotlight!

We’re putting the spotlight on YOU so that you can show us how you follow the Jet Set Zero philosophy and live a “jet set” life on “zero” dollars. Submit your own travel videos, articles, or photography that showcases a favorite destination, experience, travel tip, or anything else travel/budget/adventure related. Send us your submission (spotlight@jetsetzero.tv), upload your video to YouTube and email us the link, or post your video in reply to our example video (directions below). We’ll post our favorite viewer submissions on the Jet Set Zero site and then feature you in our Spotlight series. Here’s an example Spotlight video from Taylor:

Name: Taylor Russell
Age: 19
Current Location: Various places in the beautiful state of Washington!
Travel History: I’ve been to many states in the USA, as well as Italy, France, Germany, Slovenia, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands, & Canada
Travel dream/goal: Explore my two favorite places: Eastern Europe and Japan!
Most valuable lesson learned on the road: Don’t be scared to try new things! Most travel experiences are once in a lifetime, you can’t pass anything up!
If you could recommend one place in the world: Ljubljana, Slovenia. Amazing city, amazing country in general! And not yet heavily touristed!
Favorite Jet Set Zero episode: S02E03 – Things To Do in Tokyo When You’re Broke. How could anyone not want to go to Japan after seeing this?
Best cheap travel tip: Buy food at grocery stores and prepare it yourself.

What we’re looking for:

Basically we’re looking for interesting articles, photo series, or videos that show our viewers a new experience that fits with the idea of a jet set life on zero dollars.  Show us the hometown or office that you’re escaping from, as well as a map of your plans; show us the world’s best café  in Barcelona that only you know about; show us the stunning photos of your round the world adventure on your last paycheck after you quit your job in a fit of passion; hell, even show us the video of you quitting your job!  If you want to talk to us about an idea, we’re open to it.  Just drop us a line at spotlight@jetsetzero.tv and we’ll make sure to get back to you.

If you need some more examples of the experiences that we find interesting then check out these cast videos:

How to get it to us:

This part is easy – if it’s a video, put it up on YouTube and send us a link, or even better send us a link and post it as a response to Taylor’s video. If it’s writing, email it to us.  And if it’s photos, either email us low-res versions or post them on a site like Flickr or your personal blog and send us a description of how you want to present them.

We’re exited to see what everyone comes up with so the sooner you get us your story the sooner we can share it with the community.

Good luck!
