What is Strandmeisje about and how can we collaborate?

As Strandmeisje, meaning ‘beach girl’, I explore sunny destinations around the world to showcase how accessible they are (not every tropical destination costs a fortune!) and how much they have to offer. A beach vacation isn’t just about lying on a sunbed and doing nothing; the world has so much more to explore!

By collaborating, you can use “Strandmeisje” as a platform to promote a destination, product, or service – provided there’s a good match, of course. Read more below about collaboration opportunities, as well as more about me, my gear, and the vision of Strandmeisje.

Some ideas to work together

Strandmeisje originally started as a blog full of travel stories. Later, it expanded to include online content on TikTok and Pinterest. I made a very deliberate choice to focus on these two platforms; as an experienced marketer, I know exactly what I’m doing.

Below, you can find an overview of some collaboration opportunities. Have something else in mind? Just send an email—I’m happy to brainstorm with you. If you’re interested or want to learn more, f.e. about the costs, feel free to reach out: rianne@strandmeisje.nl.

 

Press trips often result in the best content, which makes perfect sense. This is because I experience everything firsthand and can create my own unique content. I’m very flexible in this and enjoy brainstorming ideas together. The final deliverables will, of course, reflect the scope and scale of the press trip.

Leverage Strandmeisje for advertorials! This allows you to naturally showcase your destination, product, or service to my readers. Ideally, I write the advertorials myself to maintain authenticity. Have you already written something? I’d be happy to edit it. Of course, nothing goes live without the necessary checks.
Want to promote your brand in a targeted way? Pop-ups and banners are a great option! They’re incredibly flexible and tailored to your needs, so feel free to share your goals.
TikTok and Pinterest are Strandmeisje’s main channels. These platforms can be used to create awesome content for your destination, service, or product!
Need content for your own channels? No problem! Let’s make it happen. Using my various equipment, I’ll get to work and deliver unique, reliable content in no time, ready for you to use whenever you want.

About me: Who is Rianne?

A twenty-something who earned her Tourism Management degree about 10 years ago. Since then, I’ve been sharing my travel stories in as many ways as possible—and it’s even become my job. “Always on the road, but rather on the beach” is my motto. I’m also the sporty spice of the family and, perhaps unsurprisingly, a true summer person. 

About me: experienced marketer

I’m not just someone who started a travel blog. For over 8 years, I’ve been working with love and passion in the travel industry—the best industry there is! I’ve had the pleasure of working with many great brands, such as Sunny Cars, Thomas Cook, and Center Parcs.

I apply all my marketing experience to Strandmeisje. I know how SEO works (even after all those updates), the Instagram algorithm, and I understand how destinations and PR agencies operate.

About me: authenticity

The competition in the travel blogging world is fierce. And to be honest, it’s sometimes really hard to stand out. That’s why I do my best to work as authentically and sustainably as possible.

I don’t aim for the perfect picture. I capture destinations, products, and services as they truly are, so that readers have the right expectations. I want to help (future) travelers, not entice them with something that doesn’t exist.

My gear

To capture the world properly, I always carry different gear with me. Something for every moment.
 

I always have a Samsung S24 and a Sony A6000 with various lenses. You’ll also often find my DJI Mini 2 and Insta360 in my suitcase!

Moodboard of my previous creations

The content of Strandmeisje is shot with professional equipment, but I never aim for the perfect Instagram-picture. I believe it’s important to share images and stories that match reality. What you read and see here is how it truly is.
