Win A Go-Pro Hero 3 Camera From Heineken

Aug 21, 2013 | Competitions

The Heineken Dropped video series and ‘social experiment’ is in full swing. In the 4th instalment, Capetonian graphic designer Clint Jacobs is, literally, dropped out of the sky into Poland and expected to make his way to Berlin. I previously blogged about the campaign and have been following it on Twitter and YouTube. As part of the competition in SA, where winners will have the opportunity to be a Legendary Traveller, Heineken has hooked me up with the very dope R5000 Go-Pro Hero 3 camera to give away. The world is about stories and experiences and this competition combines both. Manifest...

Heineken Dropped SA

Jul 25, 2013 | Competitions, Random

There is something about travel that puts not only one’s home into perspective but also how we fit into the world as a whole. The diversity that is the human species and the planet we live on is phenomenal but few of us have the opportunity to truly experience it, even if it is a snapshot. I often travel for work and, although the access is great, it is hard to truly experience a place when coming through for 3 days, with most of the time spent working. Heineken, with its latest global campaign ‘Voyage’, is giving four men the chance to experience the soul of the planet. Voyage is a...

Crack The Case Coming To An End

Dec 23, 2012 | Lifestyle

The Heineken ‘Crack The Case’ challenge is reaching its final stages with the series of ‘Green Missions’ being run through the Mission HQ on Facebook. Having been launched in November in the build up to the release of the latest Bond film, Skyfall, the competition comes to an end at the end of this month (and this year). Through a relationship with Heineken, I’ve had a couple of posts around ‘Crack The Case’ and Skyfall and have been fascinated by the varying views on both the film and the relationship with Heineken – we all remember “Martini, shaken not stirred” as opposed to “give me a...

James Bond Reborn With Skyfall

Nov 26, 2012 | Lifestyle

The premiere of the new James Bond Skyfall hosted by the British High Commission took place this past week and, although I was unable to attend and also meet the ‘Bond Girl’ Bérénice Marlohe (who was brought to SA by main sponsor Heineken), I did get the opportunity to catch the film after. Without giving any spoilers away, I have to say that this was one of the best I’ve seen in a while. James Bond is an institution that, over the last decade or so, has worked hard to find itself amidst the many iconic ‘action heroes’ that have cropped up. With this one, I am glad to hear that Daniel Craig...

Crack The Skyfall Case with Heineken

Nov 12, 2012 | Lifestyle

What was your first James Bond experience? Do you remember the first time you were part of the build up and excitement? There was a time when it used to reach a feverish pitch, at a time when the world was less connected and those of us on the African continent would only get access months later. Somehow, James Bond was that guy. And today, 52 years, 6 Bonds (Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig) and 23 films later, there is still a certain charm and excitement attached to a James Bond film - even with the explosion of iconic, heroic...
