By the time she was in her late teens, author and journalist Ashwini Devare had lived in six countries. As the daughter of an IFS officer, Ashwini was witness to life in the Soviet Union, Burma, Sikkim and Seoul.

Her latest book, Lost at 15, Found at 50: Travel, trials and tribulations in foreign lands is a memoir where the Singapore based author reflects on her life and growing up in countries across the world, against the backdrop of major historical events.

The Times of India describes her book as “a life measured by moments in history.” Her first book, ‘Batik Rain’ was launched at the 2014 Singapore Writers Festival. 


Ashwini is a former journalist and author. She has worked for BBC’s Asia Business Report and CNBC Asia. Ashwini has a Master’s degree in Broadcast Journalism from the American University in the US and has lived in Singapore since 2002.
