This week I’m focusing on my favorite prizes in Passports with Purpose 2010. To enter, go to the Donate page, and for each $10 you donate, you get an entry into a free prize drawing for a prize of your choice. All the money raised (less Paypal’s fees) goes directly to LAFTI. Your donations will help build a village in India.
Today I’ve picked out my favorite unusual experiences from the Passports with Purpose prize list. Most of these are donated as gift certificates.
Consider a flight on a zeppelin. Yep, that’s right, I said a zeppelin. Talk about way-out-there-unusual. I know my boys would love to win this one. If you’ve got a boy, or boy-at-heart in your life who’s got an engineering bent, I’d bet he’d be totally wow-ed with that as a holiday gift.

My last pick for today is a whopping $800 gift certificate with HomeAway.com. I’m a huge fan of HomeAway. For most of our travels as a family of four in the past ten years we’ve opted to rent houses and apartments rather than stay in hotels and HomeAway.com is my preferred website to go to research and find the “right” property. An $800 gift certificate will cover a one-week stay in a 2-bed apartment in most of the destinations listed on the HomeAway.com website.
The HomeAway gift certificate in the Passports with Purpose prize list was donated by HomeAway.co.uk with GranTourismoTravels.
