Founder & Scholarly Curator — David Wright

New Year's is a universal moment for reflection and renewal. In Asia, it is a vibrant dialogue between sacred traditions and modern festivity. I host this journey not as a holiday, but as a shared exploration of that dialogue.

We will immerse ourselves in the cultural rhythms of the season, from the quiet reverence of ancient temples to the sophisticated energy of a gala dinner. Every detail is curated to provide not just comfort and access, but context and meaning, offering a more profound way to welcome the year ahead.
