The Cebu Pacific ‘Juan for Fun‘ Backpacker Challenge is a five-day cross-country adventure competition that’s going to be held from August 29 to September 2, 2012.

It is one awesome experience as I myself have joined a similar backpacking challenge for the media in 2010 and 2011 and have brought home the top prize.

But more than the prize, it was the thrilling experiences and unforgettable adventures that I treasured the most.

The Juan for Fun Backpacker Challenge brings five (5) teams of three (3) university students to six (6) exciting and scenic destinations all over the Philippines.

Armed with P30,000 in cash, the teams get to test their resourcefulness and adventurous spirit in select Philippine destinations, with some challenges along the way. The team that gets to do the most number of challenges in each destination and ends up with the most travel savings wins the challenge. To join, teams composed of three college students who are 18 years old and above must submit a video that showcases their love for travel and adventure. Entries must answer the question: “How far will your team go for a fun adventure?”

Students will surely have a blast making the audition video and racing across the country. We look forward to their brilliant ideas when it comes to having fun even while on a budget,” said Cebu Pacific VP for Marketing and Distribution Candice Iyog.

Deadline for submission is on August 16, 2012.
