Monoscapes: Mount Balwang

The landscape at the top of Mount Balwang, Yongpyong, South Korea in winter. The peak at 1458 metres above sea level is accessible via cable-car from Yongpyong. The mountain is part of the Baekdudaegan mountain range which runs down almost the length of the Korean Peninsula.

Walking Tours & Tour Curation

I am also a Singapore Tourism Board licensed tourist guide.

I have curated and conducted customised tours, which include the Victoria Clock Tower Climb and a series of four historical tours for Design Orchard's The Non Season.

Please drop me an email to find out more, or should you be interested in a personalised walking tour.

Have you got a copy?

“Every history buff of Singapore should get a copy of this book”
– Professor Tommy Koh

Featuring 160 ‘secret’ spots in Singapore, Secret Singapore is a guide on which I had the pleasure of working on with Heidi Sarna.

Secret Singapore was among the best selling non-fiction titles in Singapore following its launch in 2020 – not bad for a travel guide!

If you are in Singapore, you may purchase them directly from me.
