Farmstays – A Journey to Childhood Nostalgia

Waking up to the sound of roosters crowing, followed by the aroma of freshly baked bread and perfectly brewed tea wafting from the kitchen. The warmth of the sun on your skin as you sit on a porch watching the lush green fields stretch out before you, the taste of home-cooked meals made with love – these sensory experiences have a way of transporting us back to our childhood and connecting us to our roots; the nostalgia that we carry with us – of the visit to our grandparents in summer holidays, the bicycle trips to the local market, the vegetable and fruit plucking from the kitchen garden, playing in the backyard with cousins, the innocence & the mischief-makings, the games & the laughter.

Chasing those colorful butterflies, our first pet animal, grandparent’s beautiful house, climbing trees, the fairy-tale we listened to, and the stories we shared.
