Tired of the burning heat and the sudden downpours in hot and wet Singapore? This is one thing Fann has learnt to appreciate while filming overseas.

"North, south, east, west, home is the best!" To Fann who is currently filming a new Taiwanese drama serial, Legend of the White Snake , in Shanghai till June, this sentiment has never felt stronger.

"This is the first time I am going away from home for so long," she says in a phone interview. Prior to this, the longest she has ever stayed overseas is a month or so.

"Usually I come back for 1 or 2 weeks before going back to continue with filming." And this is precisely why she misses home so badly.

Lonely Fann
Away from her loving family, caring friends, supportive fans, bungalow and green Mercedes (both pride and joy purchased with her hard-earned money), the feeling of homesickness can sometimes be unbearable.

"There is nothing much to do there except sleep and work," says Fann who quips that a typical day starts from 5am and can jolly well end late in the night.

"When I am free, I will either be resting or reading the script."

And perhaps, the only consolation resides in the fact that good friend (and rumoured paramour), Christopher Lee is by her side.

So does she sometimes feel as if they only have each other in the world? "To a certain extent," says Fann with a thoughtful pause.

The media-wary star was however quick to add, "I think that everyone on the set feels the same way since we are all from different countries."
