Nadine encourages blogging for nature

JAKARTA: Expressing one’s thoughts and opinions by blogging has been all the hype this year. This online activity has been construed as either very narcissistic or very useful for others. Former beauty queen Nadine Chandrawinata wants to encourage the latter.

Working with blogdetik.com and Sea World, Nadine recently held a blogging competition aimed at nurturing the love for adventure in nature, in line with her appointment as one of the country’s environmental ambassador.

“I want bloggers to fall in love with nature and expose the beauty of Indonesian environmental tourism,” she said last week, as she announced the seven winners of the competition labeled Nadz Hope Blogging Contest.

“I’m glad many people participated. They shared stories about beautiful places around the country. I ended up with a lot of information on places to visit.”
