KIM GOES SOMEWHERE
Work With Kim
Got Somewhere Interesting?
I’m Listening.
I love beautiful places, historic places, delicious places, and places with very good snacks.
But tell me there’s a strange little museum, a hidden tunnel, an oddball tour, a pirate-ish boat, a bizarre local tradition, or an experience that makes people say, “Wait. You did WHAT?”
Now you have my attention.

Wonderfully Peculiar Things
If what you offer is different, memorable, unexpected, or just a little strange, I want to hear about it.
THE STORYTELLING DEPARTMENT
What I Can Create
Not advertisements wearing fake mustaches and pretending to be articles. Real stories that make people curious enough to pack a bag.
First-Person Experiences
What it actually feels like to take the tour, visit the attraction, stay there, eat the thing, climb the thing, sail the thing, or accidentally agree to the thing.
Destination Stories
Articles that go beyond a checklist and show travelers why somewhere deserves a place in their own story.
Travel Service Features
Story-driven coverage of services that make exploring the world easier, more interesting, or considerably more fun.
Social Content
Supporting posts that bring readers along for the adventure and lead them toward the complete story.
Something Else Entirely
Have an idea that doesn’t fit neatly into one of these boxes? Excellent. I’ve never been particularly fond of tidy little boxes.

IMPORTANT BIT
Story First.
Story First.
Always.
A collaboration does not mean purchasing a glowing review.
I write about the real experience: the people, the atmosphere, the surprises, and the tiny details that make somewhere memorable.
That occasionally includes the moment when I wonder how exactly I ended up on a mountain, underground, aboard a suspicious vessel, or holding something I probably should not be holding.
Sponsored, hosted, gifted, and collaborative experiences are disclosed appropriately.
The goal is simple: tell a good story about somewhere worth going.
My favorite emails begin with...
“This might
sound weird,
but...”
You already have my attention.
SEND UP THE FLARE
Have Something Weird
and Wonderful?
Tell me where you are. Tell me what you do. Most importantly, tell me the strange little detail you think I’ll love.
From Tour Listing to Travel Story: Seven Villages of Apokoronas
Kim Goes Somewhere independently booked the Seven Villages of Apokoronas tour through GetYourGuide while visiting Crete. The resulting feature transformed a standard excursion into a first-person story about mountain villages, roadside herbs, medieval churches, Cretan hospitality, an educational quantity of raki—and the lunch that convinced Kim to get out of bed at an unreasonable hour.
The published article combines original travel storytelling, practical recommendations and photographs with a direct link to the bookable experience. Rather than simply listing the itinerary, it explains what made the guide valuable: local knowledge turned plants, ruins and seemingly ordinary village streets into stories travelers would otherwise miss. The article also answers the question that matters most to a potential customer: Was the experience worth booking? Kim’s answer was an enthusiastic yes, supported by specific, memorable details rather than brochure language.
This piece demonstrates Kim Goes Somewhere’s ability to make a tour useful, relatable and genuinely entertaining while preserving an honest editorial voice.
