Working within the hostel, I created content for Budds in Surfers for over 1.5 years, including a year managing their social media — during this time, we went on to win best hostel in Australasia at the Hostelworld awards.

The goal was to create content that felt like you were there — experiencing the hostel alongside the people in it.

Capturing real moments and daily life as it naturally unfolded, while creating fun, engaging reels that make you want to stay.
