As a freelance journalist and digital nomad for the Dutch National Geographic Traveler I am often traveling to different destinations around the world. These trips have also resulted in various publication in the National Geographic Traveler magazine and the website of NG.

I am a freelance writer / journalist specialized in travel writing. Clients have included National Geographic, Volkskrant, Getaway Travel, IN10, The River Group, Hearst Create and more.

As a freelance editor for Getaway Travel I am responsible for the weekly newsletters and six Facebook pages for the Dutch travel websites Afrika.nl, Azie.nl, NoordAmerika.nl, MiddenAmerika.nl, ZuidAmerika.nl en Oceanie.nl. Besides that, I spent one day a week on writing and executing PR and marketing plans for the company.

I lectured several academic writing courses at the University of Amsterdam to freshmen.

As an Online Content Manager for CoolRooms.nl I was responsible for writing newsletters, press releases and website content. Furthermore, I managed all social media, helped organise events and set up new marketing strategies.
