About the Author

The Travelling Assistant is my home as I have never been able to any place one due to the nature of my career’s demands.



As a Singaporean personal assistant with over a decade of experience, I've had the extraordinary opportunity to travel to more than 40 cities worldwide. This unique position has given me privileged access to some of the world's most exclusive spaces and experiences that most travelers never get to witness.


My journey began as a straightforward job but has evolved into something much more profound. Through sleepless nights preparing for important meetings, troubleshooting travel mishaps, and navigating the emotional challenges of being thousands of miles from home during significant life events, I've developed a perspective on luxury travel that few others possess.

The reality of my lifestyle involves constant packing and unpacking, endless flight connections, missed birthdays and holidays, and the perpetual state of being "on call." From London penthouses to summer homes on the Amalfi Coast, I've experienced luxury from behind the scenes—witnessing both the breathtaking privileges and the exhausting demands of this lifestyle.


Despite the 3AM calls, the last-minute flight changes, and the constant need to be available, there's an indescribable fulfillment in being the person who makes impossible things happen. This bittersweet existence has shaped my identity and given me insights into global travel that come with both professional pride and personal cost.

My Vision

The Traveling Assistant aims to share authentic, candid insights into luxury travel while maintaining the perfect balance between discretion and storytelling. Born from both necessity and passion, this platform represents my desire to process the complexities of a life spent in constant motion. After years of existing in the shadows of wealth and privilege, I felt compelled to document these experiences—not just as fascinating stories, but as a way to make sense of my own unconventional journey.


My content blends cultural curiosity, honesty, and humor with observational photography that captures genuine moments. Through this website, I hope to bridge the gap between the glossy perfection portrayed in travel magazines and the messy reality of what happens behind closed doors. By sharing these perspectives, I'm not only chronicling my unique position but also creating a space for reflection on privilege, service, and the human connections that transcend cultural and economic boundaries.
