I’ve never written about my serial spa quests here, but, well, I’m a spa gal. I like massages and scented candles and rose petals floating in foot tubs and facials and fuzzy slippers to wear while I’m enjoying all this stuff. Forget getting my nails done every other week at some local nail salon. I’d rather put money for that $10 manicure or $35 pedicure towards something that really counts, like a deep-tissue massage or a vitamin C facial, which I did last August when I stayed at InterContinental The Clement Monterey.

We all need to unwind, so while you squirrel away your hard-earned cash for your next spa treatment, as I am, toss your hat into the ring and win a chance at a spa getaway in Palm Springs, California, a place I am extremely eager to visit (if you go, please tell me all about it)! My friends at CheapOAir are holding a contest, and all that’s required of you is to sign up. Easy-peasy, right?

This is the part where I say, “Wait! There’s more!” In partnership with Qatar Airways, CheapOAir is also having another contest; an opportunity to win two tickets to Kathmandu, Nepal, a city filled with historic temples, amazing vistas and the aptly named Garden of Dreams. Travel contests spark the fun kind of “what if” questions to think about when you’re commuting and twiddling with your smartphones. Sign up. To quote Tyrion Lannister, “life is so full of possibilities.” There are too many awesome reasons to travel, and winning a contest is just one of them.
