Relation travelling from the east (8)
I believe the answer is:
oriental
'from the east' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'relation travelling' is the wordplay.
'travelling' is an anagram indicator.
'relation' anagrammed gives 'ORIENTAL'.
(Other definitions for oriental that I've seen before include "from E?" , "Maybe Chinese" , "Genghis Khan, say" , "Eastern sort of relation" , "Korean, for example" .)
