Introduce yourself
Hello everyone, I am Jan! My friends tend to describe me as quirky, fun-loving and curious. I love treading on the offbeat side of life as I navigate between chasing my dream of running a farm homestay and exploring the myriad facets of what it means to be Singaporean.
To me, Home is…
Where we come back to being ourselves truly, originally, sincerely.
What is your favourite thing about your home?
For myself, my favourite thing about my home is that I am able to do whatever I want in it. At night, jazz music rules the airwaves and I’m able to take life at a slower pace.
