Instagram Influencer Spotlight On: Diana @smelllikehome

1) Tell us a little about yourself. What are you doing now and where do you come from?

Hi, we are a family of 3 based in Bali, Indonesia. I’m Diana, a freelance writer, and Eko (my husband) is the drawing artist. We love to travel with our 2-year-old daughter, and we share the stories in our Instagram and our travel blog.

2) What are your topics of interest? What do you post on Instagram the most?

We provide our followers lots of travel (photo) stories around Indonesia we have experienced. Most of the things we share are about places, food, moments, and we always have hidden message about spending quality time with family. Sometimes we also share about our DIY-toys/games for our daughter as we try to set the gadget apart from her as best as we can.

3) How did your Instagram name come about?

Smell Like Home show how we feel as a family, no matter where and how far we go to travel.

4) What are some apps you use to edit your photos? Share with us your photo-editing routine!

Snapseed in iPhone. We usually edit the chosen photo before we posted it to Instagram.

5) Any Instagrammers whom you really like? Which Instagrammer inspires you the most?

@ouropenroad , they inspire us a lot because of their photos, their stories, and their decision as a family.

6) If there’s one thing your fellow Instagrammers just gotta try now, what’s it gonna be?

Posting the same photo with same hashtags, see who’s getting the most like and why.

7) What’s your favorite part about being an influencer?

When getting the message that our posts help or inspire our readers. It’s priceless.

8) What are some of your top tips to brands for running campaigns? How do you maintain authenticity?

Please find the authentic and genuine influencers suited for your products, not because they are already popular (although this is the easiest way) but because they are the best fit that can convey the true messages you have for your targeted consumers.

9) What would your advice be on the importance of quality and original content?

We always try to put a soul in a photo, by framing a real person inside the frame. In this way, people can firstly feel the emotion, the expression, or any message you want to say through the picture, then secondly they can get confirmation through the caption.

10) What do you like best about partnering with brands?

We can support each other to a better way. Working with the brand that really suits our mission is very important for us, and our readers. In this way, we can really promote what we think is best for us, and the brand can also benefit from the authentic potential consumers we can bring. Our readers/followers can also benefit from the real testimonials, review, or anything talking about the brand they might need.
