Work With Me
First of all, I’m so thrilled that you’re interested in working with me!
I’m a Malaysia-based content creator passionate about traveling independently and inspiring others to do the same. My goal is to show that travel doesn’t have to be expensive or confined to crowded tour buses.
As a woman of color from a developing country, I am living proof that travel is not only for the rich and privileged. Through my content, I provide valuable resources and empower my readers to make their travel dreams a reality, regardless of budget or travel style.
Since I’ve worked hard to build trust with my audience, I only partner with brands and products I truly believe in. I hope this page gives you a clear sense of whether Ummi Goes Where? is the right fit for your brand.
