Malaysia’s island region of Sarawak is a treasure trove of relics and rarities. Take a stroll down Carpenter Street in Sarawak’s capital city of Kuching and you’ll see stalls selling wood carvings, colourful beadwork, blankets and the woven mats that line the floor of traditional tribal longhouses. Nearby, at the waterfront, a bazaar of handicraft booths in the historic Steamship Building sells jewellery, paintings and scarves created by some of the country’s leading artisans. They’re guardians of Sarawak’s heritage, preserving skills that date back thousands of years and that might otherwise be lost in the rush to embrace 21st-century technology.

Years ago, before a mortgage and kids, my husband and I rented a house, sight-unseen, for a year in France's Loire Valley. The property, a sprawling farmhouse with multiple outbuildings, was situated just outside Chinon amid sunflowers, vineyards and an assortment of dogs, goats and chickens that often wandered nonchalantly into the road between our house and that of our neighbor, from whom we bought firewood and eggs.

When did your thirst for adventure begin?Adventure has been with me my whole life. I spent my earliest years on the island nation of Fiji, where my parents, who were themselves very adventurous people, were working at the time. They once recalled seeing me wandering out into the shallow ocean, lost in my own private quest. Me being a toddler, this was obviously quite alarming for them, and even when we returned to England, the only way they could stop me from putting myself in danger was to quite literally tie me to a rope. Had they not, I would have been off scrambling up some rock face.
