Why I do, what I do!
In 2006, my husband and I made a life-changing decision that would shape the next chapter of our story. With three little ones in tow, we packed up our lives and moved to Taiwan, beginning what would become an incredible 18-year Asian adventure. Since then, I've called six different countries home across Asia, each posting bringing new cultures to embrace, languages to learn, and memories to treasure. Today, I still call Singapore home—a vibrant city-state that inspired my destination website, Singapore Truly.
Those three little kids who once clung to my hand in bustling night markets and temple courtyards? They've grown into independent young adults, pursuing their own dreams around the world. And now, with this beautiful new freedom, it's my turn to explore—one country at a time.
Whether you're seeking solo travel inspiration, planning your next adventure, or ready to join a community of like-minded women exploring the world, I'm here to help make your travel dreams a reality.
