Hi, I’m Clara

I’m an author, writer and traveller, but most of all I’m a storyteller. Come with me, and let’s go see the world.

Baked sourdough at @sidewayssg , cruised the Southern Islands on @letarayacht and went spook-hunting on a night tour with @orientaltourssgp around some of Singapore’s “haunted” spots. Amazing that after almost three decades, Singapore continues to surprise me with her nooks and crannies. Full story in today’s Straits Times; 📸: @sorluan and @jasonqdw

Bhutan’s main sights are grand, towering monasteries and fortresses but truly special are the small moments within them - monks adjusting saffron robes, using mobile phones, doing chores, sharing a courtyard with local folk. If the country is on your bucket list (like it was on mine), I truly believe that the time to visit is now. Lonely Planet named it the top destination to visit in 2020 which means this gorgeous country is soon going to draw even more tourists. Go before the crowds arrive. Story and video in today’s Straits Times and big thanks to @drukasia, @ugeen_83 and @mavis__teo for such a special trip 😎

“Don’t scream,” warned my tandem pilot from @skywingsparagliding, but of course I began shrieking once my feet left the ground 👻 Paragliding was easily my favourite experience in a week-long trip around Switzerland. Will be speaking on how to plan your own adventure with a Swiss Travel Pass at the @klooktravel_sg travel festival this Sat, Oct 5, 1.15pm at Suntec Convention Centre. Hope to see you there!

Behind the scenes of our Swiss adventure: Took the wrong bus; waiting for countless trains; napping when I can; the adrenaline rush from paragliding; trying not to slip and fall in footwear ill-designed for snow. @stephyeow makes these in-between moments look so good.

Had a rail good time exploring Switzerland with gorgeous train views, cable cars up majestic mountains and boating across the clearest blue waters. The Swiss Travel Pass from @klooktravel_sg offers unlimited rides on most public transport and saved us over $500 in a week. Full story (and my first non-premium travelogue) in The Sunday Times! 📸: @stephyeow

I hope someday we'll sit down together / And laugh with each other about these days, these days ❤️

Inner Mongolia in winter can be a cold and lonely place, but good company makes it a little warmer. Continue reading 这是个好日子: On travelling and loneliness
