Hello there, my name is Tia Chung.
A devoted storyteller and photographer with a love for travel, matcha, and the art of slow living.
I’m endlessly inspired by the beauty found in ordinary days. The glow of morning light through café windows, laughter shared on family shoots, and the wonder of exploring someplace new. Through BecomingTia, I document stories of home, travel, and creativity that remind us all to slow down and savour the becoming.
I’m here to share all the moments that make life feel a little more beautiful.
From café hopping in Toronto to chasing palm trees abroad, I write for those who see adventure not just in travel, but in everyday life.
My hope is that this corner of the internet gives you inspiration to create your own meaningful experiences whether that’s booking a trip, redecorating your space, or simply making time for joy in the middle of a busy week.
I love discovering hidden gems and cultures that tell their own stories.
Not every journey needs to be grand. Sometimes it’s just about seeing the world with open eyes. From Japan’s quiet gardens to Jamaica’s seaside warmth, I find beauty in contrasts and calm in connection.
Here, you’ll find pieces of my heart scattered across places, photographs, and reflections all part of the story of becoming.
