The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.

Confessions of a NZ Travel Writer

Based in Dunedin, I have finally found nirvana - the lifestyle of a professional NZ travel writer, where I get paid to create. Writing pieces that inspire people to travel around New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific is what keeps me going.

In 2010, as the in-house writer for the
 Glacier Country Tourism Group I honed my writing skills and completed a Diploma in Travel Writing and Photography with the NZ Institute of Business Studies. I enjoyed the challenge of writing and producing the ‘Bi-weekly i-Site Updates’ and copy for the Glacier Country website. 

Writing website copy for tourism operators has become a passion. Threading keywords into a written tapestry that tells the unique story of each business is another challenge that I really enjoy.


As a copywriter, I have collaborated with Tomahawk, Immersion Marketing Management and Adventure Media Group. As well as completing a number of blog projects for tourism operators including A J Hackett Ltd and Rental Cars New Zealand. 

In collaboration with Petr Hlavacek of NZICESCAPES, the 'Kiwi Diary'  accepted an article for their 2012 edition, and I have written a number of pieces for local newspapers and magazines, including 
the Christchurch Press Escape and Mainland sections, Wilderness Magazine, Heritage Matters, and Good Magazine.
