There are a ton of travel sites out there, but we believe Travelocity was one of the first. We first saw their now famous gnome back in 2004, which was inspired by the travelling gnome prank – a tradition first recorded in 1980s Australia then popularized by the movies ‘Threesome’ (1994) and ‘Amelie’ (2001).

After the emergence (and demise) of Priceline’s Negotiator and newcomer Kayak.com, Travelocity’s brought back its iconic brand character with a series of spots, the latest of which you can see below. In it, a pair of American tourists lug their baggage on the beach before the Roaming Gnome pulls up in a dune buggy furnished with leopard print interior and patrolled by an 11. Who’s the off-the-chart bikini-clad woman? It’s Rina Roe.

For some reason, this 5’11″ Russian model isn’t everywhere. At least, not online. According to a cursory search, she is (or was) repped by 301 Management in Istanbul and Veni Vidi Vici Models in LA.
