About us: Fish and Feathers
Fish and feathers is a travel blog by journalist Hilde Veeren and travel photographer Maarten Vis. We travel around the world and post about it on our travel blog. And, in case you were wondering, the name comes from our surnames, which mean Fish and Feathers in Dutch. We have both been working in the (travel) magazine business for over fifteen years and we decided that publishing our stories in travel magazines alone wasn’t enough. So fishandfeathers.travel was launched in 2009 during a three-month sabbatical in Asia. At first just for our friends and family, but as soon as we realised our audience grew each day, we professionalised our blog.
Collaborations
We work with travel agencies and tourism agencies and we are open to writing about organisations and products that are linked to travel, if they fit our blog. For collaboration enquiries please write to: info@fishandfeathers.travel
Our readers
We remember the first readers we got and our excitement when the numbers jumped and grew each day. We are very thankful to have readers, not only in The Netherlands, but from all over the world. And with publications on other websites, magazines and newspapers and collaborations with big travel brands, we will continue to grow and expand our blog every day. You can also follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram!

Favorites
Hilde’s favorite spot: “If I have to choose it will forever be Vivenda Goa, a small boutique hotel in Goa where Maarten proposed.” Maarten’s favorite destination: I love islands: Gili Trawangan, Mallorca or Terschelling. But I bet if I ever get to travel to Chile, I’ll have a new number one!”
