ABOUT ellyafriani.blog
Hello, I am Elly Afriani, an Indonesian travel writer who has been living in the Netherlands for more than 20 years.
Since 2012, I have been actively writing on EllyAfriani.blog, where I share travel experiences, life in the Netherlands, hidden gems, cultural tourism, history, and unique destinations in the Netherlands and beyond.
This blog offers a different perspective: the Netherlands seen through the eyes of an Indonesian living here.
I believe that travel is not just about moving from one place to another, but about stories, experiences, and meaning in every step.

I am open to various forms of collaboration, including:
- Hotel reviews & accommodation experiences
- Destination coverage, including culture and history

- Seasonal travel content (tulip season, winter travel, etc.)
- Fam Trip / Press Trip (media and destination invitations)
