Digital Journalist based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Malaysia.

My desire to write was birthed out of the dramatic people I encountered in the places that I had the opportunity to visit as a dive instructor, underwater photographer & a former travel editor with Malaysia’s Tourism Ministry. In my capacity as an instructor for the last 12 years, I have assisted in scientific researches around the region, teaching & training enthusiasts how to dive & logging issues & experience in the process, to bring you not just conventional travel news & stories but stories from a very different perspective of a professional at play & journalist at work. Being commissioned to the ends of the earth in search of weird stuff, I've been sent to track the Vietnamese Boat People back in time through historical trails, paid to traverse in earthquake-prone countryside in a recce of new travel spots, planned expeditions as a diving officer, stumbled upon political rallies, caught in between cross fires & dived in shark-infested waters during expeditions days on end! Follow me as I relate my amazing journey to you!
