Distinctive places deserve stories with a point of view.
I partner with exceptional hotels, travel brands and tourism boards on stories with a clear point of view. My work combines original photography, writing and firsthand travel, and blonde.travel has a combined following of around 200,000 across Instagram and Facebook.
My previous collaborations include tourism boards in Abu Dhabi, Türkiye and Bonaire; leading hotel names such as Four Seasons and Ritz-Carlton; and many independent hotels. Each project is shaped around the place rather than dropped into a formula.

The changing way we travel
Skift Research’s Global Traveler Mindset and Trends 2026 puts social media at 36% of trip discovery against search’s 41%, a five-point gap and closing.
Among the travelers setting the pace, Millennials and Gen Z, it disappears: Skift Research’s Social Commerce in Travel found 57% cite social media as a top planning source, more than six times the next-closest channel.

What we can create together
Hotel stories and hosted stays
I create first-person hotel stories that move beyond the room tour: the atmosphere, design, food, setting and details that distinguish one address from another. Depending on the brief, a collaboration can bring together a blonde.travel feature, original photography, short-form video and social coverage.
Destination campaigns
I create destination campaigns with a clear visual narrative and practical editorial value. The work can follow a single journey or build a fuller portrait through blonde.travel features, itineraries, photography, short-form video and social coverage.
Photography and short-form video
I produce original stills and vertical video for hotel and brand-owned websites and social channels. The brief, editing, delivery format and usage rights are agreed in advance.
Social campaigns
Campaigns can extend across @blonde.travel on Instagram and the blonde.travel Facebook page. A campaign may live on one platform or across both, depending on the brief. Please request my Media Kit for the current platform breakdown and available formats.
reviews and reputation management

A Tripadvisor contributor since 2014, I hold Superstar status for both reviews and photos, a distinction Tripadvisor awards to its top 1% of members. My contributions have received more than 130,000 views, earning Views Authority recognition. I bring that experience to hotel collaborations through honest, professional reviews based on my stay, with optional forum engagement to answer travellers’ questions about the property.
Beyond individual collaborations, I offer full-scale Tripadvisor reputation management and advisory services for hotel teams, drawing on experience helping properties reach the top of their categories and earn Travelers’ Choice awards.
Selective by design
I choose places and products that belong naturally in the world I already photograph and write about. That fit matters: it allows a collaboration to feel credible to readers while doing justice to the partner. Paid and hosted arrangements are disclosed; my observations and conclusions remain my own.
