Hire the Best Travel Writers
in Australia

I am an Australian travel writer and photographer with firsthand experience in more than 100 countries across all seven continents. Over the past 12 years, my work has been published in Australian newspapers, international travel magazines and a variety of online travel platforms, while my photography has been commissioned by NGOs and featured in a UN Women campaign. I am committed to producing original, high-quality work that delivers genuine value to clients. My goal is always to create content that not only aligns with a client’s vision and objectives, but also exceeds expectations. I am highly responsive to feedback, adaptable to client requirements and take pride in building strong long-term professional relationships founded on reliability, communication and consistently delivering quality results. I am particularly passionate about projects within the sustainable and regenerative tourism sectors, which I believe represent the future of travel. My work in this space is informed by a Bachelor’s Degree with Honours in Natural Environment and Wilderness Studies, extensive firsthand travel experience and collaborations with nature-based adventure tourism companies. My niche specialties include surf and dive tourism, eco-conscious escapes and travel in Morocco, a country where I lived for several years and developed an in-depth understanding of its culture, landscapes and travel experiences.

" Writing, proofreading and editing engaging texts is what I specialize in and something with which I have the most experience. In our modern world of SEO-optimized online marketing, online content is king, and no one understands this concept better than I do. Please note that I am avidly client-focused and will not sell cookie-cutter ‘writing packages’. I prefer to get to know you and learn all about your specific project before devising a plan of action (and fee). No two clients are ever created equal. *** Why me? *** ⭐ Bachelor Degree in Languages (Interpreting, Translating & Linguistics) ⭐ TEFL Certification ⭐ 4 years of group tour guiding experience in Africa, Latin America & Australia ⭐ 18 years of independent overland travel experience, through more than 100 countries ⭐ Published author ⭐ 12 years of freelance writing and editing experience ⭐ Accomplished travel blogger & editor ⭐ Top-Rated status on Upwork, 100% 5-star reviews *** What I offer *** ✅ Impeccable proofreading and editing services. no matter how long or complicated your text, book or academic paper may be, I will work tirelessly to polish it to perfection ✅ Fresh and relative content: exceptionally researched and 100% original written by ME! ✅ Content that is tailored to YOUR business and YOUR market audience ✅ A unique writing voice that reflects your specific image (conversational or professional?

I’ve worked as an overland adventure guide in Africa and South America, travelled independently through the Middle East for two years and recently completed a 6-year motorbiking trip from Germany to Australia. I’m currently enjoying a stint of vanlife through Europe! I’m an experienced travel writer, blogger and copywriter although, if truth be told, what I am is a professional traveller. The writing is simply my way of sharing my expertise and knowledge with any travel agency or organization which may find it useful. Tour guiding is in my blood, and travel guide writing has been a natural evolution of my working life. I contribute online content to prominent Latin America travel companies - including Chimu Adventures and Viva Expeditions - and have created website content for an eclectic group of companies, including P&O Cruises, Cunard Cruises, Travelocity, Ocean Getaways Private Yacht Charters, Costa Rica Rios, InterContinental Hotels Group, Tropics Gourmet and many many more. Although I specialize in travel to Latin America, Antarctica and the Arctic, I am always open to new projects involving travel to any other part of the world.

I’m a writer with a strong editorial voice and experience creating clear, engaging content for real audiences. Where I specialise: - Travel - Culture - Lifestyle - Blogs - Destination guides - Long-form articles - Brand content I write from a humans perspective so my work balances storytelling with structure, and using my sales background I take my skills understanding people to perform well. Traveling has sharpened my perspective, but professionalism, deadlines, and clarity always come first. If you’re looking for a writer who can deliver thoughtful, reliable content without fluff, I’d love to work together.

**I am not an AI copywriter, the words you'll receive are all me!** I'm a freelance writer currently indefinitely travelling – Upwork is a means to keep that going! I pride myself on creating fun and engaging content, and feel as though I have a particular talent for distilling large and complex ideas into something more easily digestible. After creating a travel blog in 2015, I realised that there was a market for a writer who could produce content that was at once professional and tongue-in-cheek. I’ve gone on to make it a full-time career, writing for a wide variety of organisations and industries, including the likes of Qantas, Airtasker, Sportsbet and Square. If you're looking for an interesting and unique writing style to set your content apart from a lot of the AI-generated beigeness that's out there, drop me a line!

I will write content that will consistently exceed your expectations. I specialise in travel writing but can adapt to different writing styles for your project.
