Work with Me
Want to work with The Wandering Daughter? In addition to helping families worldschool, I love connecting with fellow travelers. I also love collaborating with brands on projects and pieces.
If you manage a website, a magazine, or are writing a book, I'm available for interviews, guest posts, writing feature articles on your website or magazine, or contributing chapters to your book.
If you're a travel-related brand, I can provide sponsored reviews of your product, service, or destination. I prefer working with brands that focus on educational aspects of travel or have a sustainable travel focus.
Some examples of my sponsored content include Six Things You'll Love About A Komodo Tour and Choosing A World Cultures Curriculum For Your Kids.
Email me at astrid @ thewanderingdaughter . com. I'd love to work with you!
