REFLECTION ON THE ROOF OF THE WORLD

While too much introspection can be a tricky thing, sometimes it pays to indulge in some reflection. And solo trekking in Tibet is an adventure that allows you to explore the untouched beauty of the Himalayas, while connecting with your inner self. Yet a visit to Tibet's Mt. Kailash ("Stairway to Heaven") is much more than just a trek; it's a pilgrimage. For Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and Bonpos (followers of Tibetan Buddhism), Kailash is hallowed ground. So sacred, in fact, that climbing this spectacular Himalayan peak is forbidden. Instead, visitors must circumnavigate the mountain in a journey of contemplation, flanked on all sides by magnificent scenery. Start in Tibet’s capital Lhasa, and move onwards and upwards to Dirapuk, Zultulpuk, Darchen, and breathtaking Lake Mansarovar. After days of long, exhilarating treks, rejuvenate with a sip from the holy waters of the freshwater lake.

LIFE’S A BEACH IN SOUTHERN THAILAND

There are numerous reasons why Thailand hits the sweet spot for solo travelers. Indeed, it’s hard to think of a more enticing option for me-time than a sojourn to the Kingdom’s beautiful southern beaches. From Phuket and Krabi, where showstopping stretches of sand are complemented by plentiful beach bars, restaurants and activities, to the Similan Islands, a diving paradise, the country’s west coast is deserving of its legendary status. Whether you're looking for an adventure or just some time to relax and unwind, Thailand’s beach bounty provides a plentiful feast. Add a world-class portfolio of beach resorts into the mix — such as Amanpuri, Six Sense Yao Noi and Trisara — and this low-barrier option becomes difficult to resist.

CULTURE & CUISINE IN SINGAPORE

Singapore wraps a range of thrilling draws into a neat self-contained package. A huge part of its appeal is its cultural diversity as a melting pot of Chinese, Malays and Indians, which manifests deliciously through its incredible range of eating options. Due to its roots as a trading hub, Singapore has cultivated a unique mixture of ethnic influences reflected in its mix of traditions and local customs. Discover the harmony in its diversity through its food, tracing roti for breakfast in Little India, nibbling on Michelin-rated plates in Chinatown, rolling your own Peranakan popiahs, pulling your own teh tarik in Kampong Glam, fishing up your own chili crab, and creating your own gin cocktails.
