About

The world is yours to explore

Hello!  

Welcome to An Explorer Within!

I’m Jenette, an avid traveler, explorer, foodie, wellness buff and storyteller. As a published writer featured in various publications, this website marks my latest creative endeavor.

My journey began in the corporate world, where I worked for multinational companies. However, my passion for travel led me to a remarkable 24-year career as a flight attendant. This role allowed me to explore the globe extensively and immerse in diverse cultures. I am forever grateful.

After leaving the airlines, I transitioned into B2B events and marketing communications, gaining valuable insights in a totally different industry. Drawing inspiration from my varied career and life experiences, I aim to share my stories and inspire others to embark on their own adventures.

Happy exploring! 🙂

 The first step is often the hardest, but once you’re out, you hardly look back.


My travels to over 180 cities across six continents were all born out of a dream. A daydream, if I may. Then with some planning, research and heaps of persistence, those daydreams turned into reality. I could not be more grateful. 

More than the typical travel and lifestyle guides, I will share real life and travel stories that are helpful, fun and light-hearted in nature. Whether they are travel tips, book and art reviews, wellness features and more. 

And so, I hope my little blog will inspire and wake the explorer within all of you. The inherent human drive to discover and savour new experiences whether in travels, arts, wellness and life in general.
