Understanding Umbria
Umbria isn’t another city to tick off a list. It’s a region where countryside, quietness and everyday life shape the journey as much as any landmark. Here’s what I’d love you to know before you visit.
My Third Summer in Umbria
Three years after moving to Italy, June feels less like a season and more like a way of life. Long days, ripening fruits, lingering lunches and familiar routines reveal an Umbria that guidebooks rarely describe.
Seeing Someone Twice
At the Far East Film Festival in Udine, a Singaporean film, an aperitivo at sunset and a conversation with friends became reflections on memory, migration and human connection.
The Places We Carry
Moving between Malaysia, Hong Kong, Singapore and Umbria, I began noticing how food, family rituals and atmosphere quietly shape our understanding of home. This is a reflection on memory, migration, slowness and the emotional places we carry within us.
