Freelance Journalist
Lonely Planet, CNA, The Straits Times, CNBC Travel. Time Out Asia, Now Boarding
A Singapore-based freelance writer producing travel and lifestyle beats for the past ten years.
He best enjoys slow travel as a way to unearth rich stories, and whenever possible, on foot. It gives him the opportunity to discover bypassed spots and distill insights on the ground for his pieces. With this commitment to excavate new perspectives, he began his digital nomad plans in 2020 with month-long stays in cities such as Seoul, Kyoto, Bangkok and more.
His work has appeared in CNBC, CNA, Lonely Planet, TimeOut, The Straits Times, Now Boarding, and more.
For 2025, he hopes to a personal passion project - mamag - a digital zine that eschews 'best' and 'must-do' recommendations to offer overlooked experiences.
