2024 winners

Lauren Cotter – United Kingdom
Isaac Blencowe – Australia
Alyssa Green – United States

We received more than 11,000 entries for our Content Creator Scholarship to Thailand and many showed an amazing depth of talent, creativity and storytelling. Our challenge is to find an aspiring travel content creator that demonstrates a rare combination of technical skill, storytelling ability and raw potential.

When it came down to deciding the winners, we looked closely for an expressed desire to follow the path of travel content creation and for who would most benefit from the mentorship experience with NOMADasaurus. Even though there could only be three winners, we hope you all continue to use your passion for creating travel content to inspire the world.

After much deliberation, we're excited to announce the three winners to you. We can’t wait to see what you create in Thailand.

Lauren Cotter – United Kingdom

Lauren's entry not only showed an entertaining and personable side to her content but also demonstrated an acute awareness in storytelling, scripting and planning. Lauren has a clear love for both travel and creating content, and has a very bright future ahead of her in the industry.

Isaac's obvious passion and motivation for creating highly engaging travel content really stood out, and his entry captured our attention immediately. Adding humour, authentic experiences and personal stories throughout illustrated his tremendous potential to the entire judging panel, and we're excited to be working with Isaac in Thailand as one of the Scholarship winners.
