Profile Information

Are you connected to the tourism/travel/hospitality industries or travel media in any way? If so, please specify how (kindly include any relevant company names/Web sites!).: I'm a freelance writer and photographer specializing in travel, environmental issues, and international development.

As a journalist, I write for a variety of magazines, newspapers, and online publications, both in the United States and abroad. I write about various aspects of travel but am most passionate about responsible travel, sustainability, nature/wildlife/ecotourism, philanthropic travel/voluntourism, and authentic cultural interactions, as well as soft adventure (kayaking, hiking, camping, etc.). I'm also interested in emerging destinations and the things that make any destination unique.

As a copywriter, I work with businesses and organizations who want to stand out in a crowd. To attract the attention you deserve, you need to inform, engage, and inspire your target audience. Effective communications is about connecting with people in a way that resonates with their needs, concerns, and interests. At its heart, it's about telling a good story. I help you do this through articles, website content, brochures, reports, and other written products. Simply put, I find the words to show the world who you are and how you are different. My clients include travel and outdoor recreation companies, cultural organizations, nonprofit organizations working on global issues, and businesses that are striving to be sustainable and socially responsible. I am also experienced at working with non-native English speakers who want to reach a broader audience.

On which destinations & travel topics can you advise members especially well?: responsible/sustainable travel, adventure travel, volunteer and philanthropic travel, Scandinavia, Ecuador, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Mexico, other Latin America, Mongolia, Pacific Northwest, U.S. Southwest, New England

What destinations are you most interested in learning about?: Emerging destinations, sustainable tourism destinations, nature/wildlife travel destinations

Other travel / language expertise?: Lead adult educations tours (museum & alumni travel programs, etc.)

We have noticed that you are a member of the New Zealand Group and in the travel business. We own and operate Lone Kauri Lodge Karekare, a small secluded B & B in the Waitakere Ranges, an area of exceptional natural beauty just under an hour from Auckland’s city centre and airport.

70% of our guests are from overseas and typically they stay with us at the beginning of their holiday to recuperate after a long flight or at the end to reflect on their time in NZ before the journey home.

We invite you to take a look at our web site www.lonekaurilodge.co.nz

At 6:46pm on November 2, 2009, EnLinea Media said…: Good evening, Annika, and welcome to Tripatini! Great to have you with us -- and we think you'll find our site productive as well as interesting and enjoyable.

To get the most out of Tripatini, you may want to take a moment to join several of our many groups which you may find of particular interest, such as Media Only, Eco/Sustainable Tourism, Eating/Drinking the World, Hotels/Motels, Mongolia, Learning/Language School Vacations, Oregon, Washington State, our Spanish, German, Italian, and Portuguese language/culture clubs, and plenty of others covering many topics and most destinations across the globe.

FYI, on your profile you'll see a green bar marked "Text Box," which you can turn into a box containing not just text but also photos and even videos about yourself, your interests, your travels, and your writing/outlets.

Finally, if you would, please be so kind as to spread the word among your travel-interested friends, family, colleagues, associates, and readers. It's fast and easy to use our "INVITE" function above left on the navigation bar to enter e-mails (even your whole list at once!). If you have the opportunity to cover us in any of your outlets, that would of course be greatly appreciated, and if you might be interested in occasionally blogging for us, guidelines/rates are available upon request.

Thanks much for joining us, Annika; we wish you an outstanding rest of 2009 and look forward to seeing you online.

Cheers!
