Author Biography
Born and raised in Singapore, Janice Tay entered journalism after graduating with a degree in English language and literature from St Hilda’s College, the University of Oxford in Britain. She has worked for more than 10 years as a reporter, copy editor and sub-editor with The Straits Times, Singapore’s main English language daily and one of the oldest newspapers in Asia. Unable to forget Kyoto after a holiday there, Janice uprooted herself and moved to the heart of old Japan to study the country’s language and culture. A decade later, she is still there. Kyoto Unhurried is based on a fortnightly column on Japanese culture that she contributed to The Straits Times from 2007 to 2013. The column built up a following that ranged from students to working professionals and retirees, appealing both to Japanophiles and those who simply want to be transported.
