Travel Media Creator & Certified Travel Advisor
Your destination
has a story
I find the travelers
who want to hear it
Tourism boards and DMOs invest in marketing that reaches the right audience at the right moment. I create content for the travelers who go deeper; the curious, experience-driven visitors who research before they book, who choose a destination because of a story they found, and who stay longer because someone made it feel worth the trip.
Through long-form blog content, social media campaigns, and video storytelling across five platforms, I introduce your destination to an audience that is already looking for exactly what you offer, they just haven’t found you yet.
I turn a destination into a reason to visit, through content that is honest, searchable, and built for the traveler who is already planning their next trip.
Destination Photography
On-location photography that captures the true character of a destination, not the postcard version, but the real, layered, atmospheric images that make someone stop scrolling and start planning. Delivered ready for editorial, social, and print use.
Strategic Content Creation
Content built to appeal to the high-value traveler segment your destination most wants to attract – outdoor enthusiasts, history seekers, cultural explorers, and experience-driven visitors who plan intentionally, spend meaningfully, and tell people where they’ve been. Every piece is designed to make a compelling case for why your destination belongs on their itinerary, not just their wishlist.
Long-Form Blog Content
Search-optimized, long-form articles that put your destination in front of travelers at the exact moment they are researching where to go. Written to rank, written to convert, and written to hold up over time, not trend-chasing content that disappears in 48 hours.
Social Media Campaigns
Multi-platform campaigns across TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook tailored to each platform’s native format and audience behavior. From short-form video to carousels to long-caption storytelling, designed to extend your destination’s reach into audiences that traditional DMO advertising often misses entirely.
Video Content
Short-form video built for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts, storytelling-first, algorithm-aware, and engineered around the discovery formula that drives real engagement. My highest-performing videos consistently combine historical context, a then-vs-now angle, and a specific reason your destination matters right now.
Travel Advisory & Itinerary Content
As a certified travel advisor, I build itinerary-based content that goes beyond inspiration and that tells travelers exactly how to visit your destination, what to see, how long to stay, and why it is worth the trip. Content that turns passive interest into actual bookings.
One of Florida’s Last Wild Springs Explored in Full
A three-day hosted trip to the Wakulla Springs region of Florida’s Panhandle, spotlighting the destination’s remarkable natural heritage and outdoor recreation. Content focused on making the case for Wakulla as a worthy detour for travelers who think they’ve already seen Florida, one of the oldest and largest freshwater springs in the world, framed through a discovery-forward lens. Coverage included a variety of key experiences including wildlife boat tours, the historic Wakulla Springs Lodge, and the region’s broader appeal for nature-focused travelers and families.
The Other Kansas City: Where Outdoor Enthusiasts and History Buffs Go
A five-day hosted immersion into Kansas City, Kansas — specifically the side of KCK that rarely makes the travel listicles. Coverage targeted two overlapping audiences: outdoor enthusiasts and history buffs, with content designed to reframe the destination for travelers who may have overlooked it in favor of its Missouri neighbor. Itinerary highlights included local landmarks, outdoor experiences, historic sites and cultural stops, along with the hidden gem dining and neighborhoods that define the authentic KCK experience.
Lough Derg and the Case for Donegal as a Pilgrimage Itinerary Add
A hosted visit to Donegal centered on Lough Derg, one of Ireland’s most ancient and enduring pilgrimage sites, drawing visitors for over 1,500 years. Content made the case for Donegal as a meaningful itinerary addition for travelers seeking authentic Irish experiences beyond the well-worn tourist trail. Coverage positioned Lough Derg not only for spiritually-minded travelers but for culturally curious visitors drawn to living traditions, remote landscapes, and experiences that require intention. The resulting content framed Donegal as one of Ireland’s most underrated slow travel regions, paired with a practical itinerary framework for folding the region into a broader Ireland trip.
About Yanitza
The travel creator
tourism boards
actually want.
I’m Yanitza – a travel media strategist & creator, certified travel advisor, and the voice behind Next Stop Adventures. Based in the Appalachian Foothills in North Georgia, I’ve been creating travel content since 2019, covering destinations that most travel media never touch: the overlooked, the historically significant, the places that reward travelers who are willing to look a little closer.
My audience doesn’t want the filtered version of a place. They want the history, the context, the honest take; the kind of content that makes them feel like they actually know a destination before they arrive. That is the audience that takes longer trips, spends more intentionally, comes back a second time, and brings people with them.
I work with tourism boards and destination marketing organizations to create the content that brings that traveler to you, through SEO-driven blog articles, multi-platform social campaigns, and video storytelling built specifically for discovery. Every piece of content I produce is designed to earn real attention and convert it into actual visitation.
