Hi! I'm Manon πŸ‘‹

A Dutchie with a creative heart and curious eyes, always up for an adventure and capturing beautiful places. Together with my English partner Joe, we’re doing full-time vanlife in our 30s, discovering Europe’s best spots to stay.

With over 15 years of professional experience in marketing strategy and content creation. Backed by years of leading campaigns for 5-star Grand Hotel Karel V (Utrecht) and travel agency Charlie's Travels (Kenya), I look at your location through a strategic commercial lens.

Upgrading existing content

Photo editing & color grading. Sometimes a few small tweaks to color, light and details are all it takes to make a photo look so much better, without straying from reality. So besides new content, I can also upgrade the content you already have. Slide to see the difference.

Every place I fall for,
ends up on the map

Say yes to hosting Joe and me, and your spot gets pinned on my map, giving your location long-term exposure to an active audience of European travelers looking for their next stay.

While my map originally started with camper nature spots, I am now adding regular accommodations too: comfortable places to stay and recharge from all the travelling

Why @manonthenomad?

With over 15 years of hands-on experience in photography, video content creation, and social media strategy, I know exactly what catches the eye. I don't just shoot pretty pictures and videos. I capture your stay through a strategic marketing lens to create imagery that actually drives bookings.

Joe and I travel full-time across Europe in our campervan, making it effortless to capture your stay on-site. I bring all my professional gear directly to your doorstep, no complex travel or hotel logistics required

My community mainly consists of active 25–40 year old European roadtrippers, nature lovers, couples and digital nomads, mostly without kids, who actively save unique stays for their next trip. My high-engagement video content regularly reaches 100k+ views across platforms.

Need more than content?

Next to social media, content creation, photography and videography, I also do graphic design and websites! Want a flyer or menu card, a new website, or a fresh look at your current one? Let me know!
