About Us

Our Mission: Real Trips. Honest Advice. No Fluff.

Asia Trip Blog exists because we got tired of travel content that reads like a press release. Every guide we publish is rooted in personal experience — the good nights, the wrong turns, the guesthouses that exceeded expectations, and the ones that absolutely didn’t. We write the things we wish someone had told us before we landed.

Meet the Team

Jack Lee

Jack Lee

Northern Vietnam & rail

Jack launched AsiaTripBlog after spending years backpacking through Southeast Asia on a shoestring, then returning in style. He specialises in Vietnam — from the northern highlands to the Mekong Delta — and believes the best meal you’ll ever eat costs about $2 and involves a plastic stool.

Rosie Ng.

Culture & Slow Travel Writer

Rosie travels slowly and writes deeply. Whether navigating temple etiquette in Kyoto, taking a cooking class in Chiang Mai, or getting hopelessly lost in the alleyways of Hoi An, she seeks the kind of travel that lingers long after the flight home.

Ken Ng.

Adventure & Outdoors Writer

Ken is happiest when there’s no Wi-Fi and the next destination requires a boat. An avid hiker and diver, he covers the wilder side of Asia — from motorbike loops through Ha Giang to island-hopping in the Philippines and jungle treks in Borneo.

What We Stand For

Experience First

Every destination we write about, we’ve been to. No recycled content from other blogs — only places we’ve walked, eaten, and slept.

Honest Reviews

We call things as we find them. If a hotel was disappointing or a tour wasn’t worth the money, we say so. Affiliate partnerships never change our opinions.

Practical Detail

We obsess over the details that actually matter: how to get there, how much it costs, what to book ahead, and what you can safely leave spontaneous.

Responsible Travel

We recommend experiences that respect local communities and environments. We highlight ethical operators and encourage travellers to tread lightly.

Kept Up to Date

Travel information goes stale fast. We revisit and update our guides regularly to keep the practical details accurate and trustworthy.

All Types of Travellers

Whether you’re a first-timer with a tight budget or a frequent flyer after something more off the map, we aim to write guides that genuinely help.
