Welcome to my little hideaway on the world wide web. My About page talks more about how I hope to inspire others to stop procrastinating and start living their travel and design dreams.
My blog is designed to inspire, educate and motivate the average Joe/Jane to move out of their comfort zone and into the adventure they truly desire.
My aim is to blend travel and art in a way that feels natural. Where the reader is able to become mindful of the art all around them as they experience the world’s peoples and cultures.
Collaborate with Passport by Design and your brand will gain a unique opportunity to connect with a niche, high-intent audience focused on the intersection of international travel and creative design.
Key Reasons to Collaborate
Targeted Niche Audience: Your brand gains exposure to travel enthusiasts who specifically value art, culture, and aesthetics rather than just generic tourism.
Commitment to Conscious Consumption: Passport by Design prioritizes experiences over things and actively promotes brands that support global artisans and handmade quality.
Authentic Storytelling: The blog focuses on blending travel and art naturally, helping readers become “mindful of the art all around them”. This ensures your brand is integrated into a narrative that feels meaningful rather than just transactional.
Proven Track record with Artisans: Passport by Design regularly features and supports artisan brands – such as Bohcreation (Indian-based handmade apparel) and Paper Papayas (Caribbean-inspired jewelry) – providing personal endorsements based on actual usage.
