Meet Me In Tahiti
Socially Integrated Website

Designed for Paul Gauguin Cruises, a virtual vacation where you can pick 3 friends to accompany you on a whirlwind tour of activities and excursions found on the islands of Tahiti, then share all made possible by the cruise line. The site features gorgeous images, video and social plug-ins for a fun and engaging way for users to experience what Tahiti and Paul Gauguin Cruises can offer.

I produced and designed every aspect of the user experience and interaction and led the visual design of the site.

June 2012: This project won a Travel & Leisure Smitty award for Social Media in Travel & Tourism. The project won in the cruiseline class for "Best Single Social Media Promotion."

Upon landing at MeetMeInTahiti.com, users log in to Facebook and “Check-in” to Tahiti, alerting friends of their impromptu getaway to French Polynesia. Users then select three Facebook friends to accompany them through a jam packed day where they create custom postcards of their friends enjoying exciting activities such an off road jeep safari or snorkeling with the sea turtles. To cap it all off, after enjoying the Tahitian sun users can post their postcards to Facebook directly from the site for all to see, and of course be jealous of.

The driving force behind MeetMeInTahiti.com is to showcase Tahiti as much more than just a honeymooner’s destination.
