Three young people have landed one of the coolest jobs in the world. As part of Coca-Cola's Expedition 206, the team will attempt to visit 206 countries and territories where Coca-Cola is sold, covering more than 275,000 miles in just 365 days, all on a mission to find out what makes people happy.
Following a worldwide online vote to determine the team of happiness ambassadors, the three winners -- Tony Martin, 29, a Washington , D.C. , native now teaching kindergarten in Munich ; Kelly Ferris, 23, a university student from Brussels ; and Antonio Santiago, 24, a university student from Mexico City -- were introduced today at a global investor event at the World of Coca-Cola in Atlanta .
Martin, Ferris and Santiago will embark on one of the most ambitious travel adventures ever during 2010, bringing Coca-Cola's "Open Happiness" campaign to life as they visit people from different cultures, document their experiences and share stories of happiness with the world.
People can follow the entire journey as it plays out in real-time on the expedition's online headquarters at www.Expedition206.com, as well as on Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Flickr and other social networking sites. Fans also will serve as "virtual travel agents," helping the team decide where they go, what they do and who they visit in each destination.
