Learning the ropes of travel in a five-star hotel in Thailand is what brought me to Black Tomato. I’d seen how people had stayed, and unwound, but I wanted to learn more about what they did when they left the hotel’s door. You can chalk much of that curiosity to my earliest childhood, when my family moved to Singapore. I was six. During those years, I was lucky beyond belief; spending half-terms horseback riding in Margaret River and summer vacations rambling along the Great Wall of China. Some of my fondest school memories include nights spent in a tribal longhouse in the jungles of Sarawak and performing a traditional Rajasthani dance during an exchange programme to India. My feet barely seemed to touch the ground.

Now, I spend much of my time in Black Tomato’s product team forging strong relationships and developing new experiences with our on-the-ground partners all over the globe. Outside of work, you’ll likely find me plotting my next European weekend break or else looking to see how many ski trips I can fit into a single season. Happiest when on the slopes, I’ll debate the topic of snow vs sun for hours.

'Whatever you are looking for in life, you'll find it - somewhere - in travel'

A closer look at India

We all travel for different reasons. To escape or embrace, rest or reinvigorate. But at its core, travel is a fundamentally enriching experience that broadens our horizons. It fills our senses with beguiling landscapes and foreign flavours, builds bridges where language cannot and fosters connections so deep that we all talk about the people we’ve met and the places we’ve been for years to come. Nowhere have I felt this more than in India.

Whatever you are looking for in life, you’ll find it – somewhere – in travel. And you’ll return a better person for it, with a deeper understanding of the world around you. That can only be a good thing, I think.
