A DNA test, a phone conversation and some sheep are among the ingredients that persuaded people to travel last year.
Why do we travel? To escape, certainly. To discover somewhere new. And also to find out something new about ourselves. All of these options are on offer in last year’s suitcase of creative hits, starting with a now-famous DNA test in which some rather narrow-minded folk found they were closer to their neighbours than they had imagined. Elsewhere, tourists could call Sweden to find out what it was really like or trek around Ireland in search of carved wooden doors inspired by Game of Thrones. Feeling a little left out, the citizens of the Faroe Islands strapped some cameras to sheep and let them film the rugged landscape for Google Maps. In other words, advertising in the travel sector is as diverse as the little planet we call home.

Story | During this emotional film for online travel site Momondo, volunteers are asked about their national identities. The individuals consider themselves pure products of their own countries: 100% French or English, for example. The English guy admits to being suspicious of foreigners, particularly Germans. After providing saliva samples for a DNA test, the results prove that they all have a mixture of origins: the English guy even has some German in him. “There would be no such thing as extremism in the world if people knew their heritage,” says the French woman. On open world begins with an open mind. |

2. Swedish Tourist Association / The Swedish Number (132s)
Titel | The Swedish Number (132s) |
Brief | Sweden is a fun and friendly place. To prove it, the country became the first to get its own telephone number. Simply call the number, get through to a random Swede, and ask them whatever you want about their homeland. A few lucky callers even got through to the Prime Minister. The idea caught everyone’s imagination: including that of Barack Obama, who mentioned it in a speech. Sweden was trending big time, all thanks to a number. |

Story | SUMMARY In 2015, the Swedish Tourist Association (STF), dedicated to promoting domestic tourism in Sweden, was facing collapse. To attract younger members and retain current ones, the “Swedish Number” campaign was launched. Anyone with a Swedish number could download a unique app, log in and be randomly connected to a caller from around the world curious about all things Swedish. These conversations reminded Swedes the reasons they loved their country and, in the process, encouraged them to join the STF community. As the first country in the world, Sweden got its own phone number. When calling it from abroad you get connected to a random Swede, somewhere in Sweden. The Swedish Number gave the control of the image of the country to the Swedes themselves. Nothing was censored or pre-arranged. In the name of freedom of speech - what ever opinion you may have, it matters. The Swedish Number was open for anyone to call just by using a normal telephone, but only from abroad. Swedes register as "telephone ambassadors" simply by downloading an App. |

Story | In January 2016 the Game of Thrones filming location and 400-year-old tourist attraction The Dark Hedges was devastated by a storm that left fallen trees in its wake. Over ten weeks, the fallen timber was transformed into ten beautifully carved doors, each depicting storylines and themes from Game of Thrones episodes. The doors were installed at the heart of a Northern Irish community – the local pub of a Game of Thrones filming location. Together they formed a pub-crawl spanning the length and breadth of the country. The project transformed a devastated tourist attraction into a brand new one. |

Story | Lucky tourist given VIP treatment and dinner with Prime Minister after becoming 6 millionth person to visit Georgia. The unsuspecting visitor was treated to luxurious food, fabulous wine, music, dancing and a very warm welcome as the country, situated between Europe and Asia, celebrated an increase in tourism last year. Arriving in a new country on the first day of a big trip can be daunting at best, disastrous at worst. You’re tired from the flight, you have to wait forever for your bags to arrive on the carousel and there are no taxis to the hotel. Imagine how much better the experience would be if hundreds of strangers had got together ahead of your arrival and, without you knowing, planned a VIP experience for you. Those strangers take care of everything from luxury transport and delicious food and wine to cultural experiences and meetings with fascinating locals. Sound too good to be true? Well that’s exactly what happened to one unsuspecting man when he arrived in Georgia. Jesper Black flew there from his native Netherlands last year having no clue he was about to become the 6 millionth international traveller to visit the country in 2016, which sits in the Caucasus region between Europe and Asia. The Dutchman negotiated passport control like everyone else, unaware he was being watched by government workers and others who had spent months preparing for his arrival. A total of 6,350,825 international travellers visited Georgia last year, up by 7.6% on the previous year, so the country had decided to celebrate. A video released by the Georgian Tourism Administration shows some of the preparation for Mr Blacks’ trip, with residents being ask which of the country’s cuisine he should be treated to. It then shows a driver pick the lucky tourist in a luxury car and begin to drive. When the passenger asks the driver where he’s being taken, the chauffeur smiles and hands Mr Black a card that reveals he is in for a treat. It said: "Dear Jesper, you are a very special guest for us. Perpare for surprises. Georgia." A large screen looms in front of them as they drive through the capital city Tbilisi, featuring a large photograph of the man of the moment's face accompanied by the text “he has arrived”. Mr Black can’t believe it when he steps from the car and is greeted in person by Giorgi Kvirikashvili, the Prime Minister of Georgia. The pair site down together to enjoy delicious looking food and some of the country’s famous wine while being entertained with traditional Georgian music and dancing. At the end of the video, Mr Black says it was a once in a lifetime trip that he will definitely be telling is children about. Blinking back tears he says he is “super grateful” to the people of Georgia for the warm welcome. |

6. Visit Faroe Islands / Google Sheep View (Case Film)
Titel | Google Sheep View (Case Film) |
Brief | Interesting facts about the Faroe Islands: they’re among the most unexplored spots on earth, sheep outnumber humans two to one and, until recently, they didn’t exist on Google Street View. Determined to change that last fact, the country’s tourism office launched “Sheepview 360”. A local version of the popular Street View with one major difference: all imagery was shot from 360° cameras strapped onto sheep. With #WeWantGoogleStreetView and #VisitFaroeIslands, the campaign attacted global interest and got the attention of Google. Today, tourism is at an all-time high and the tiny islands are finally on Street View. |

Story | he remote Faroe Islands have for many years been neglected by Google Street View. That was until islander Durita Andreassen began attempting to map out her homeland using a flock of sheep equipped with solar-powered 360 cameras. Her efforts prompted thousands of people to urge the tech giant to include the Faroe Islands in its visual mapping project. Google, who thought Durita's project was "shear brilliance", soon sent a Street View trekker and 360 cameras via their Street View camera loan program and last week the Google Maps team arrived in the Faroe Islands to help train and equip the local community to capture even more Street View imagery. Now, anyone living on or visiting the Faroe Islands can contribute to creating the Street View using sheep, bikes, backpacks, cars, kayaks, ships and even wheelbarrows. |
