When it comes to writing about creative pursuits—crafts, knitting, crochet, art history, painting, you name it—you'd be hard-pressed to find someone more well-versed than Elen. Over the past two years, my content agency has worked with a world-class brand in the online education space to create SEO-optimized content on a wide array of creative topics. I've hired Elen to write 1-3 articles per week, and her passion for the arts, global perspective, and clear writing style shines through in each one. I'd happily recommend her for any project that needs an expert touch to creative topics.

Elen has worked with TripAdvisor and Viator for over two years, as a freelance writer and content researcher. She’s unfailingly professional and efficient in her projects—whether she’s working on product copy, marketing emails, or content audits. Elen is a pleasure to work with as well; she’s always positive, reliably meets deadlines, and has been a trusted resource for countless quick-turnaround projects. In terms of destination expertise for travel writing and research, Elen’s significant first-hand knowledge of Asia (Nepal, India, Japan), New Zealand, and Australia have been particularly valuable.

As an assigning editor, I’ve worked with hundreds of writers over the years. While some relationships are short-lived, my long-time collaboration with Elen Turner is something I truly value. Elen is a savvy world traveler with a keen eye for what readers want. She’s also a storyteller that can weave together all the particulars of an assignment while also adding a higher-level patina. Her pieces arrive on time, in excellent shape and always teach me something I did not already know about the topic at hand. She is one of my go-to writers. Give her an assignment and I bet she’ll become one of your keepers as well.

Elen Turner has written countless articles for kimkim.com since 2016, and I feel lucky to count her among our contributors. The expertise, quality, dependability, and collaborative nature Elen brings to the table are absolute gold for a busy editor. Her straightforward communication, timely submissions, responsiveness to edits, and quick adaptation to our ever-changing style and formatting standards make it clear that she’s a pro. If it isn’t clear by now: work with Elen if you have the chance!

It has been a pleasure having Elen as our content writer for the last 6 months. Her turnaround has been quick, but more importantly, her ability to produce well-written content for a range of purposes is what impresses me the most. I would absolutely recommend Elen to anyone who needs content, editing or proof-reading services.

Elen has written fantastic articles for First Steps Himalaya and Beyond The Clouds. She has a natural flair for writing and knows her subjects very well. She is thorough, professional and we are proud to have her write for us.
