LandLopers has a lot to celebrate – September is our six-month anniversary and we just unveiled our brand new logo and site graphics!
Helping us celebrate is SteriPEN, who has graciously volunteered to sponsor this month’s giveaway.
SteriPEN is a world leader in hand held, ultraviolet light water purifiers and truly sets the standard for fast, light, easy and effective water purification.
These are great little devices to take on any trip, but particularly to areas where you might not be sure of the water. Personally, it has helped relieve some of the anxiety about health concerns while on the road – which is the last thing I ever want to worry about.
SteriPEN will be giving one lucky LandLopers reader a SteriPEN Traveler.

SteriPEN Traveler
The SteriPEN Traveler is the most efficient SteriPEN for travel, capable of purifying 200 half-liter servings of water on just one set of AA lithium batteries. The Traveler is designed to fit perfectly into commercial water bottles, forming a seal that lets you keep the water in the original bottle for purification. Just insert the Traveler securely into the mouth of the bottle, turn it upside down, and you have safe drinking water in less than a minute.
Needless to say, this is perfect for anything from a weekend camping trip to long-term travel around the world.

We would use the SteriPEN on our frequent camping trips to places where on occasion water from any source is a commodity.
