At the turn of the millennium, American-born Paige Parker and investment guru Jim Rogers spend three years—1,101 days to be exact—driving over six continents in their "sunburst yellow" coupe and trailer, ultimately setting a Guinness World Record. During the epic journey, Paige's world view is turned upside down, eventually leading her and her family to their ideal home in Singapore.
On the road trip, she meets women from every walk of life, inspiring monks in China, boy soldiers in Angola and oppressive patriarchy in too many countries, yet she walks away with a profound faith in humankind. She now wants to pass the lessons from the road to her two daughters, to women everywhere and to all intrepid travellers.
Paige Parker moved from New York to Singapore more than a decade ago, and is a board member, patron and fundraiser for various organisations, including the Singapore Committee for UN Women, Singapore Symphony Orchestra, National Gallery of Singapore and Singapore Dance Theatre.She supports and promotes Singapore talent, be it in design, jewellery, the arts or fashion. She is a freelance writer and a graduate gemologist through the Gemologist Institute of America. Paige is a member of the Circumnavigators Club and the Explorers Club. She and her husband, Jim Rogers, have two daughters, Happy and Bee. Singapore is their home by choice. You can follow her on Instagram: @iampaigeparker and @dontcallmemrsrogers.
