Nassau, Bahamas - Iconic Long Island attractions take centre stage in a new television commercial thanks to a partnership between the leading island hopping travel blog, The Domestic Tourist, and the Bahamas Telecommunications Company (BTC).
BTC signed Noelle Khalila, the Domestic Tourist as the newest brand talent for promoting its Internet service last week. Noelle Khalila will be featured in ads for the company's ongoing BTC Everyday brand campaign.
The new commercial features some of Long Island’s most distinctive treasures, highlighting the simple and free fun that makes island life so appealing. Children at play by the Salt Pond dock, where hundreds usually congregate for the annual Long Island Regatta, finding amusement by daring each other to jump off the dock and goading strange travellers to join the fun.
"On the Domestic Tourist Facebook page we plan to run a fun giveaway around naming these iconic locations, so we hope our fans stay tuned," said Noelle Khalila.
The world renowned Dean’s Blue Hole makes the cut, with Noelle Khalila plunging from its 30 foot cliffs. Sandy Cay Beach is also featured, along with its native residents, protected Bahamian rock iguanas.
“BTC’s message - every island, every connection, everyday - was something I could align myself to, because the Domestic Tourist is about discovering, exploring and sharing island experiences across the Islands of The Bahamas all the time. I am promoting a lifestyle of self- discovery through travel, of life enjoyment through trying new things. I sum it up best by saying, live better, travel more. The Bahamas happens to be a playground for all of that to take place and I am blessed to showcase the faces of the islands many people do not know," said Noelle Khalila.
"As an online brand we rely on BTC's Internet services everyday, so it is only natural they would see value in an endorsement by The Domestic Tourist. We use their products in a way that is fresh, fun, exciting and innovative, plus it serves a broader national development interest. I believe the relationship has a lot of potential, so hopefully it will be maximised," she said.
Full time island-hopping is quite an undertaking, and producing digital content to go along with those travels is no easy feat. It is an important job made possible through technology.
“We can’t live in a country selling travel to tourists and not enjoy the pleasure ourselves. We hope to continue inspiring our readers, motivating them to go on their own island adventures. We are always open to mutual collaborations to help us achieve that objective,” said Noelle Khalila.
