Turning Local Pages into Global Inspiration

Travel Weekly Magellan Awards

A campaign by Marnie Van der Burgt | Wheels Up Adventures

In a digital world that moves fast and forgets quickly, Marnie Van der Burgt chose to slow things down—and turn the page.

“Turning Local Pages into Global Inspiration” is more than a marketing campaign. It’s Marnie’s personal mission: to awaken wanderlust through the trusted, tactile power of print—and invite her community to experience the world through the lens of luxury, purpose, and possibility.

Marnie Van der Burgt
From Local Magazines to Global Dreams

Through strategic partnerships with regional publications, Marnie curates inspiring travel narratives—blending her own journeys and those of her clients into rich, story-driven features. Each article opens a window to the world: from wine-tasting in Tuscany to barefoot sunsets in the Maldives.

These aren’t just snapshots of destinations.
They’re deeply considered, personally lived experiences—crafted in collaboration with esteemed Luxury Travel Partners.

Power of Exploration
Travel Storytelling Meets Strategic Partnership

To deepen the impact, Marnie partners with Luxury Travel Partners on co-op advertising that runs alongside her features—creating a cohesive, editorial-meets-aspirational experience for readers.

Each magazine becomes a well-orchestrated touchpoint—part story, part inspiration, part action plan—designed to ignite dreams and drive decisions.

🌀 Print with Purpose, Digital with Reach

While rooted in print, this campaign is anything but old-fashioned. Marnie extends the story across platforms—translating each magazine feature into blog posts, social content, and interactive reels that give new life to each destination and deepen the connection with her community.

Together, these touchpoints form a multimedia ecosystem that’s as tactile as it is timely—grounded in authenticity, powered by passion.

Client Testimonial

“I came home changed.”

“Marnie was an absolute delight to work with, from the very beginning of our trip planning, which started months in advance, all the way through to our departure. She carefully researched and crafted the perfect itinerary based on the areas we wanted to explore in Switzerland, tailoring every detail to meet our specific preferences for each accommodation in the cities we visited. Every aspect of our trip was seamless and flawless, making it an unforgettable experience from start to finish. Switzerland is breathtaking, and Marnie went above and beyond to ensure that each hotel check-in felt extra special for my husband and me. We would not hesitate to plan another trip with her. Her knowledge of the areas we traveled to is unmatched, and we highly recommend working with her. Thank you, Marnie!”"
