Hi Sonja, tell us about your family!
We're a multicultural family of five: From left: Mazen, Laith, I'm Serbian, my husband Mazen is Layla, Lana and Sonja a Me American, and we have three gorgeous children, Laith ten), Lana seven), and Layla four). Our love of travel has meant we've lived in the US, Paris and Dubai over the years. We've called Singapore home for the past six-and-a-half years, until recently in the Novena area. As our kids are at the International French School Singapore, we've just relocated closer to reduce the commute.
Why did you decide to join a social club, and more particularly what stood out about The American Club?
We wanted to find a place where everyone in the family could relax and have a good time. When we joined, our kids were still very little, and we found that The American Club was the most suited to families. The space, activities, friendly atmosphere and diversity of members combined to make this our club of choice. Sealing the deal was the amazing staff they're helpful, well-trained and, above all, caring.
