Family-friendly hotel brand AmericInn by Wyndham is currently searching for family travelers who want to embark on the journey of a lifetime. The brand recently launched its second-annual search in which one family will be paid $15,000 to attend three state fairs across the Midwest, sample the foods and rides, and report back with their highlights.
To land this dream role, families can submit a 300-word-minimum written entry and family photo, or a 60-second or shorter video to fairfamily@americinn.com
. The written entry or video must showcase why they should become AmericInn’s Fair Family. Remember: The more personal flair and passion for state fairs, the better!

Sep 23, 2026Move to the Music and Rhythm of Destinations Around the World
The true rhythm of a country is felt away from the main tourist traps. Galleries, museums and historic sites provide an overview, but you need to go elsewhere to experience the living, beating heart of a place. For instance, immerse yourself in the humid turmoil of a Durban underground club, or get to grips with the formal group dances of the Scottish Highlands, or become part of the foot-stomping camaraderie of a Galway pub, or ride the waves of neon-lit energy in a Seoul basement nightclub.
