Let’s work together!
I’m Anita Dykstra and I run this travel blog Anita Hendrieka. I started this blog in 2011 with the envision to inspire people to travel and help them plan their adventures. It’s now turned into something bigger than I ever could have imagined.
I am passionate about travel and I love to convince people to see the world for themselves and not through the tv. I believe that travelling is one of the best forms of education. This is from my personal experience as I know for me, I have learnt more about history, geography, cultures, and countries than I ever did in school.
My promise is to help our readers discover the most beautiful and the lesser-known pockets of the world.

ENGAGED AUDIENCE
I don’t think of my followers as only followers, I think of them as friends. I love to communicate in a personal tone as I feel like people can relate to me a lot more.

I am very honest with my readers as I know that I would want people to be honest with me.

Social media is incredibly interesting to me and everything I know today is self-taught. I have a real interest in social media marketing which means you can expect the best quality. I am constantly educating myself further on how to reach more of the right people. I love creating on social media via short-form video, that’s my jam!
WHO I HAVE WORKED WITH
“I worked with Anita on a sponsored campaign for one of our clients in the traveling sector, she produced a beautiful copy with huge editorial value, way ahead of the deadline we agreed. We chose Anita because of the quality content we found on her blog and she delivered on every possible sense, a great decision all round.”

WHAT TOPICS DO I SPECIALIZE IN?
I specialize in a range of topics which are all listed below. There are many different ways people like to travel so I like to cover the different aspects that I consider myself an expert in.
UNIQUE GUIDES
I love getting to know a city or town by finding out the most unique and off-beat things to do. Therefore, I love to provide unique travel guides to my audience and not the usual boring guides people are familiar with!
SOLO FEMALE TRAVEL
I have been travelling since 2012 and 90% of that time I have been by myself. As a solo female, I have travelled to places such as the Middle East, North Africa and India. I love to provide real and factual information for solo female travellers and I’m passionate about squashing misconceptions about females travelling alone.
NEW ZEALAND
I am a born and bred Kiwi, so I love writing and promoting New Zealand tourism. New Zealand will always have a special place in my heart.
ALBANIA
I currently live in Albania, so I write a lot of content about this country. It’s one of the last countries in Europe which is off the beaten path and it has so many unexplored areas, plus the most beautiful beaches in Europe!
RESPONSIBLE TOURISM
When I travel I make sure I do it responsibly. Travelling should be an authentic experience and should always be done responsibly. There should never be any exploitation of people, animals, and nature.
ADVENTURE TRAVEL
I love a good adventure, who doesn’t?! From skydiving to snorkelling I love exploring the adventure side of regions around the world. Getting my diving license has been on my bucket list for years now!
FIRST-TIME TRAVEL
I am passionate about inspiring others to go and see the world for themselves, which is why I write a lot of content for people who are first-time travellers.
MILLENNIAL TRAVEL
As a millennial myself, I know what makes us tick, which locations we’re seeking and what we’re not.
LUXURY TRAVEL
I love checking out luxury hotels and experiences around the world. Who wouldn’t love chilling in an island retreat in the Maldives?
