Hello everyone! I’m an experienced content writer, strategist, and editor specializing in the travel and hospitality sector. I don’t just write. I also edit and improve content so it actually works. That can mean starting from scratch, or taking something that already exists and making it clearer, cleaner, and more natural. I have a large body of work, both online and published, and a spotless client rating. Feel free to reach out with any questions or project ideas.

I am a published freelance travel writer whose work has been commissioned by BBC Travel, Sunday Times Travel Magazine, The Telegraph, The Indepependent, NZ Herald, Which?, Fodors and Bradt (contributions in Bus Pass Britain Rides Again & To Oldly Go). Online, I've received paid commissions for sites such as The Discoverer, Trip Trivia, Travel Trivia, Daily Passport, Hotels.com, Culture Trip, Go4Travelblog.com, Mundana, Love Exploring, Trainline Europe and commercial copy for Wanderlust magazine. I have a number of commercial clients who commission me on a regular basis to write web content and bespoke travel itineraries for their customers. I hold a good joint honours degree in Geography with History and have travelled to 126 countries. I can write with authority and accuracy on a wide range of places. In addition, I've also successfully researched and written about places I've not personally visited with a high quality end result. I regularly use Wordpress for client blogs.

Travelling to 15+ countries in the last few years has broadened my horizons and worldviews. My passion for travel has become my lifestyle, and I now live full-time on the road in a 30-year-old Mercedes campervan exploring Europe and beyond. I make a remote income as a copywriter here on Upwork. Topics I have covered (typically SEO): - RV/campervan - Travel - Vanlife - Food + recipes - Fitness + wellbeing - Vegan + vegetarian - CBD + cannabis Writing is more than just a job for me; it's where my creative energy flows and sculpts every piece of content I produce. Having been published on several reputable websites, my knowledge and confidence grow more every day. Producing predominantly SEO content, I specialise in writing articles and blogs that, along with connecting to the reader, also rank well in search engines. These can be written in British or US English. Living and travelling on the road full-time, my schedule is very flexible, and my writing continues to be inspired as I wander the world in my hippy bus. I have experience with writing, editing, and proofreading, along with Google Docs, WordPress, Squarespace, and Microsoft Word. I also have VA experience, particularly with customer communications. I DO NOT use AI to produce content—100% robot-free articles.

Writing is my passion, English is my game. I live to travel, and I travel to live! Refreshing my being daily, reaching for joy from all walks of the earth — whether it be the 'Chi Oi's' working blissfully in the rice fields of Northern Vietnam, or the sun dancing off the Mediterranean Sea in Cadiz, Spain... I've been in the travel writing game since 2018, with hundreds of articles and works published online, including major travel publications. Highly detail-oriented? You bet! I love to lend my unique voice (doused in passion) to my writing — no AI here, folks! However, my tone is totally adaptable, depending on the House Style. I'm comfy writing in both British and/or American English. Research is also somewhat of a second love of mine; I guess there's a reason I studied Journalism. I'm extremely deadline-driven and possess excellent grammatical skills. And yes, I am a native English speaker. Not to toot my own horn, but I'm often praised for my speedy writing/deliverables and work ethic. Some may say I'm a "workaholic" — I beg to differ; I just dub it as being in love with what I do. Apart from the travel writing, I work for a design and lifestyle publication. Call me a Digital Nomad, with a strong online presence to match. My workbelt includes: • Long-listicle type content/blogs • Short, punchy description writing • eBooks • Content curation • Research • Copywriting • Fictional creative novel writing • Travel itineraries • Refreshing existing work on websites from the backend side/WordPress • Proofreading • Editing (and working closely with other teams of editors, writers, clients, etc.) ~ A great personal achievement was graduating Cum Laude in my final university year. ~ Touching briefly on who "Shan" is as a person (yes, I just did refer to myself in third-person): ~A super creative force; my spare time is filled with drawing, painting, or learning Italian. ~As much of a cliché as it is, YES, I am a foodie. I'm the one in the friends school hunting down the latest it-spots to wine and dine. ~I'm an aesthetically-pleasing Libra, and love getting lost in the world of fashion, design and art, conjuring up my dream aspirational products, or future coffee book I WILL one day compile. ~Travel-obsessed, my current destination count is sitting at 92 global cities/towns/villages worldwide. ~I wear my heart on my sleeve: what you see is what you get.
