Collaborations that inspire
Travel content with soul, reach and real-world results
Hi, I’m Marlene Marques
I’m a journalist, travel blogger and content creator with nearly a decade of full-time dedication to exploring the world. Over the years, I’ve built a loyal community of curious travellers who seek authentic, off-the-beaten-path experiences. Through my digital platforms, I share stories, destinations and practical tips to inspire others on their journey.
Why work with me


Ways We Can Collaborate
01.
Blog Articles
I create editorial-style blog articles optimized for SEO, but written for real people. Every piece is based on research, personal experience, and a journalistic approach. No generic fluff or brochure-style content. Just practical, inspiring, personality-driven writing.
Best for: brands seeking authentic, evergreen content that stands out organically.
02.
Press Trips, Blog Trips, and Publicity Campaigns
As a journalist and content creator, I combine real-time coverage with long-lasting value. From storytelling to photography, video, and practical insights, I turn every hosted experience into rich, engaging narratives on the blog, Instagram, YouTube, and beyond.
Best for: tourism boards, hotels, or travel brands looking for visibility with depth and credibility.
03.
Personalized Travel Guides
I develop original digital products — mobile-friendly travel guides, interactive maps, themed ebooks — that can be used in campaigns, offered as bonuses, or sold via partnerships. Each product is user-focused, field-tested, and beautifully designed.
Best for: brands or destinations looking to provide scalable, practical travel content, or want to offer premium, practical value to their audience.
04.
Editorial Content Creation
With a journalism background and experience writing for Lonely Planet and other international media, I create editorial content that informs, engages, and converts. From interviews to features and branded storytelling, I bring depth and quality to each project.
Best for: travel media, tourism websites, agencies and brands looking for meaningful content.
05.
Brand Partnerships
I don't promote just anything. I only work with brands that match my travel style and values: authenticity, sustainability, and real usefulness for travellers. The ideal collaboration respects the content, adds value to the audience, and builds long-term trust.
Best for: brands that value meaningful content over mass exposure and want genuine representation.
