A journey through Malaysia by rail, car and foot makes the case for slowing down and opening your itinerary to chance.

No trip to Singapore is complete without a meal (or 12) at its hawker centers, which sell multicultural dishes from generations-old recipes. But rising costs and demographic change are threatening the beloved tradition. 🔗 https://t.co/regHeiohZs

So true. Reason alone to visit fascinating Singapore. "Singapore is arguably one of the best food cities in the world, thanks in large part to its 121 hawker centers, which sell multicultural dishes from generations-old recipes." by @sebmodak

i maintain that when it comes to variety and bang-for-buck, singapore is the greatest food city in the world—and that's all thanks to hawker centers. i ate everything in sight to learn about the future of this treasured (and endangered) tradition. https://t.co/eMhDsFd4TX

INCREDIBLE SCENES last night after Colombia fans surrounded hotel of the national team in Miami ahead of Copa America final against Argentina. Around 300,000 Colombians reside in South Florida, which should make tonight's showdown a CONMEBOL Clasico. 🇨🇴 https://t.co/0adjkgkYSu

Incredible scenes at the final whistle here in Charlotte. Colombia, playing with 10 men for the entire second half, produced a performance full of guts & courage to beat Uruguay & reach the Copa America final. Some exceptional defending - special mention for Mojica. What a win 🇨🇴

We need to talk about Colombia. We need to talk about the team unbeaten in 27 matches. We need to talk about a country that finished a Copa America quarter-final like an exhibition match. We need to talk about James Rodriguez, who is playing like it’s 2014. 📝 @stujames75

I was one of the lucky ~80 to be chosen and wrote about it at the WSJ link below. In the paper this weekend.
