Editorial Writing & Translation
Connecting European audiences with the heart of Irish travel.
I help travel brands, tourism boards, and local hospitality suppliers captivate their audience through engaging editorial travel content and culturally adapted translations. By balancing journalistic curiosity with commercial clarity, I write content that keeps readers longer on your platform and turns them into customers.
Whether writing about local culture, community features, or destination histories, my focus is always on engagement and audience alignment.
"Creative, energising and humorous: Sylvia’s writing hooks the reader from the start. Her dynamic and inventive style changes any topic into a powerful story."
(Natalia Szczyglewska-Mitchell, Programme Coordinator)

Published Author & Destination Expert
I am the author of a comprehensive, print-published travel guidebook featuring 12 themed walks through Dublin. This project required intensive on-the-ground research, independent cultural documentation, and the ability to turn complex Irish heritage into immersive, pleasantly paced German travel prose.
Having successfully delivered a major print publication, I work with international travel brands operating in the DACH market, as well as local Irish suppliers looking to elevate their editorial presence.

Travel Content for the DACH Market:
Editorial Travel Content
I craft informative and descriptive content, as well as character-driven stories without using generic travel cliches.
Transcreation & Localisation
I don't just translate words, but convey the charm, spirit, and uniqueness of Irish tourism brands, so they resonate authentically with a German-speaking audience.
Content Polish & Review
I offer thorough editing and proofreading of existing German web content and marketing materials to ensure cultural and linguistic accuracy.

"With thanks to Sylvia for her excellent translation services."

"Sylvia helped us with tour and content writing for The Small Adventure Company in 2022 and 2023. Working with Sylvia was super easy. She always had a good understanding of what we wanted and delivered within the deadlines at all times. Her work was spot on, well-researched and lovely to read. We will definitely work with Sylvia again if the opportunity arises."

"Creative, energising and humorous, Sylvia’s writing hooks the reader from the start. Her dynamic and inventive style changes any topic into a powerful story. Where a careful reader discovers that what appears on the surface, in fact, only an introduction to step even further into depth.
One of Sylvia’s greatest strengths is her open-minded approach and skilled (yet humble) competence. This makes it incredibly simple to discuss the content, style, and length of each piece, ensuring that it aligns perfectly with the intended audience. Her ability to maintain a fast pace without sacrificing quality is an additional bonus. This has been evident in her pieces accompanying our newsletter (2500+ recipients), which have remained in the top 3 most opened and read articles in each edition.
I recommend Sylvia’s creativity with a joyous heart and pure consciousness. Her unique writing style and ability to turn any topic into a compelling story would make her an excellent fit for roles such as content writer, creative writer, or even a novelist."
(Natalia Szczyglewska-Mitchell, Programme Coordinator Pastoral Area of Greystones and Kilquade, March 2024)
