This blog traces my journey as a writer and solo traveller. It aims to record the beauty discovered, the issues encountered and the lessons learned.

It can be challenging to come up with a catchy title for a blog or newsletter that conveys ‘everything’ we want to express. Chasing the Intangible captures what drives my inquiry into things, places and people. All the tangibles in life that we can see, touch, smell and hear, have buried within them the intangible accessed through emotion and contemplation, like meaning, significance and future implication. Those in turn allow perspectives on justice, ethics, freedom, faith, planet stewardship and humanitarianism. True, those do have – must have – their tangible manifestations, but much of the significance and meaning that passes between people in their body language; what they do or fail to do or say and the consequences that follow is mostly in the realms of the intangible where our beliefs, morals, happiness, equilibrium and spirituality reside – the place where we know truth, distinguish right from wrong, appreciate beauty and recognise both threats and love. For me, essential truths lie in the intangible concept of contrast.

My stories aim to ignite your desire to travel while you accompany this writer in your imagination from one location to the next.
