Where it all began

Let’s rewind to March 2016: our first surf trip together through Sri Lanka. That exactly was the starting signal for wavesnbackpack and the countless travel stories we wanted to share. We wanted to create a platform that keeps these memories alive. What started as a personal passion project has evolved into an established brand for travel, surf, and outdoors.

In our work, we merge our diverse backgrounds: Ani brings her love for all things linguistic and visual, along with her expertise in language and aesthetics. Julian handles the digital side; with his background in SEO and digital communication for global corporations, he ensures our stories are actually found. As a team, we create content that reaches travelers through targeted search engine optimization.

Our Services

We specialize in creating high-impact visual campaigns designed to resonate. From SEO-optimized blog articles to collaborative Reels, we combine heartfelt storytelling with technical expertise to ensure our content sticks.

// Note: To maintain transparency and stay true to our community, we do not offer unpaid product tests. We are also not interested in link exchanges. We believe in fair partnerships that value professional work.
