Real Life Fantasy
Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 31/05/2019
» When you were a kid, you probably have read countless fairy tales with magical lands and wondrous kingdoms. As a child, you would have dreamt of living in places that were possible only in the imagination -- beautiful gardens, charming castles and serene lakes. While you may not exactly live in an actual castle on a faraway land, Khao Yai's Hotel Labaris is the next best thing to living in an idyllic, fairy tale world. I visited this magical place to give you the lowdown on becoming king of a faraway land.

Talking heads
Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 28/09/2018
» In most countries, negativity towards mental health and depression still looms large, casting doubt and uncertainty for those who suffer from the common yet complicated mental illnesses to talk about it. "Crazy" or "insane" are words often used for such people, and because of the shame and stigma attached to mental health, it prevents most from seeking professional help. However, several groups and projects have been established to help gain a better understanding of what such people go through, and to raise awareness. Knowing what to say to someone who is depressed may be difficult, but these groups have provided a platform for those wanting to help and more so for those who need help.
