Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the most common questions we receive about backlink outreach:

I am a hobbyist Nikonian interested in photographing urban cityscapes, nature and UNESCO heritage sites. Since my only daughter moved from New York City to Singapore, I have frequently travelled to Singapore. Over my numerous visits, I fell in love with Singapore and transformed from a tourist to a traveller exploring the nooks and crannies of the City State, taking thousands of photographs. While putting together these photographs in my album, I realized that Singapore has so many unique precincts, suburbs, and neighborhoods that it would make a beautiful coffee-table book if I described a brief history behind them!

During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021, when I was quarantined in a hotel for fifteen days, I finally had a chance to think of compiling my photographs in an album as a gift for my daughter Gunjan, who is my reason and inspiration for visiting Singapore. When I shared the early draft of this book with my husband, Jitendra, he was excited about the prospect of launching this book in all formats. His enthusiasm was contagious, making me believe publishing it was worthwhile.

I hope my book will help readers discover Singapore as one of Asia’s wealthiest and most diverse countries. The book shows how architecture combines comfort and aesthetics effortlessly, beautifully blending modern, rich ethnic, and cultural heritage! Readers will discover many Singapore precincts, suburbs, and neighborhoods through this book. The book provides aha moments to all readers, whether they live in Singapore or planning to visit Singapore!

Singapore is continuously expanding, and its precincts, neighborhoods and skyline are constantly evolving! It will be a delight to readers to discover this continuous evolution of the City State through their personal exploration.

It is said, ‘Begin with the end in mind!’. I had envisioned the complete book even before I started writing it! My experience of publishing a family heritage book earlier influenced my presentation and selection of the print parameters for this book. I am indebted to the Tellwell team for reverberating my aspirations.
