About Me
I'm a freelance travel and lifestyle writer with over 10 years of experience crafting engaging content for digital and print publications. I specialize in city guides, interviews, and cultural pieces, focusing on F&B, wellness, and travel experiences.
My work has appeared in publications like BBC Travel, Lonely Planet, South China Morning Post, Tatler Asia, WGSN, and more.
As the former editor of leading Hong Kong lifestyle websites wcity.com and hkclubbing.com, and WGSN's APAC Travel Editor, I bring extensive experience and a deep understanding of the digital media landscape.
