Media enquiries

Featured above are just some of the companies who have partnered with Hayley on Holiday to promote their business or destination. During my #BussingUSA media trip in 2014, I worked with several tourism boards in the United States. For complimentary access to the city’s best tourist attractions, I promoted them through blog posts and via social media. Here are two examples: Nashville and Atlanta.

I have also worked with many Australian and international businesses to promote their company through sponsored posts. Some of the businesses I have collaborated with include Luggage Direct, Drive Now and Celebrity Cruises.

We can work together in multiple ways, such as press trips, sponsored posts and accommodation reviews. Please contact me on the form below and I will happily provide you with a media kit.

Freelance writing services

I am also an experienced freelance travel writer. My work has featured on websites like The Culture Trip, Matador Network, Travelettes and Royal Caribbean Cruises. For samples, please visit my Contently portfolio. I am always looking to take on more freelance writing work.

Please contact me below or via hayleyasimpson [@] outlook [dot] com for more information. But please note that I don’t accept any form of guest posts on Hayley on Holiday. I look forward to hearing from you.

MANLY 🌊 Here’s how I spent a few hours in Ma MANLY 🌊 Here’s how I spent a few hours in Manly on a sunny Sunday: • You have to get the ferry from Circular Quay. The views from the top deck are 😍. • Stroll down The Corso • Check out the markets • Walk to Shelly Beach • Grab a fish burrito for lunch at @chicabonita_sydney • Follow up with ice cream from one of the many ice cream shops! • People watch on the beach 👀. I felt too uncool for Manly but loved it anyway 😂.

Here are some recs: • Go see the Kiama Blowhole and the glistening rockpool, then follow the walking path to the main street. • Do as the locals do and enjoy lunch at @thehungrymonkeyofficial 🤤. • Check out the cool local boutiques along Terralong Street, selling products from several local artisans. • Stop by @thepinespantry for ice cream (and cheese). • Check out the view from Pheasant Point Drive 👏🏻 (my dad also recommended Bombo Headland). Kinda jealous my dad grew up here to be fair 😂.
