Share Your Travel Stories
Here’s a chance to see your name and words in print! Do you have a travel story that you want to share with VRBO Traveler readers?

If so, we’d like to hear it. We welcome photographs, as well!

• Please submit photos of your home or the property you rented
• Remember, we cannot accept photos with people in them

To help you get started, here are topics about which we’d love to get input for our upcoming issue.

• Prague, Czech Republic
• San Miguel de Allende, Mexico
• Bethany Beach, Delaware
• Big Sky, Montana

Was your vacation home built decades or centuries ago? If the walls could talk, what stories would they tell? We’re looking for architecturally unique photos that transport travelers back in time.

Please send us your “historic home” photos (both interior and exterior shots) and share the story behind your home’s history.

Deadline for submissions is Wednesday, March 5, 2008.

Remember, we cannot accept photos with people in them.

The VRBO Traveler editorial team will choose the three best submitted shots, and display them in our next newsletter, including links to your property listing.

*Remember, your photo should be a minimum of 72 dpi up to 300 dpi. A larger photo is generally better, so if you’re not sure of the photo’s DPI, we would prefer a 5”x8” size or larger. Generally a file size that is around 3MB will be sufficient for our needs. Take your best shot!

We want to hear from you! Send us your thoughts, advice, questions, and all other feedback to vrboeditor@homeaway.com.
