the owner
I’m so happy you’re here
Hi, I’m Melissa! A 25-year old with a huge passion for writing, photography, social media and basically all things creative. One of my other big passions is travelling the world – I combined these passions into a sustainable travel blog.
I’m a true coffee lover and really can’t start the day without a good cappuccino, dogs are my absolute favorite thing in the world, I am a big nature lover and love to spent time in the forest and on the beach, I always work with my headphone on listening to music, I live in the Netherlands and love to get out of the house with my camera to snap some photos.
It’s a lot of work to run a business. I’d love to help you out with the creative process so you can focus on other things!
HOW IT ALL BEGAN
a writer at heart
As a little girl, you would always find me writing in a notebook and behind a laptop when I got older. I was always writing. It developed into a true passion over the years and eventually grew into my sustainable travel blog Rosy Melissa. Social media got to be my second passion, as I loved growing a community online and connecting with others.
After getting a degree in Tourism Management and Online Marketing, I started to work in (content) marketing and worked as a social media specialist for different companies. I got to learn how much fun it is to work on different accounts, with different target groups and content. That’s how Socialissa was created – because I absolutely fell in love with the process of social media management and copywriting.
