Life in plastic
Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 22/06/2018
» Earlier this month, a whale was found dead in the southern province of Songkhla after coughing up more than 80 (count 'em! 80!) pieces of plastic bags. We pay the price for being heavy users of single-use plastic items at the cost of a life of one poor, innocent mammal that made national and international headlines around the world. It's a huge wake-up call for us to take immediate action and change our behaviour with the way we do away with our rubbish.

A day in Soi Nana
Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 02/03/2018
» Located in a small road off Rama IV in Yaowarat, and not to be confused with the more well-known red-light district in Sukhumvit 4, Soi Nana has risen to become one of Thailand's tourist hot spots. Many of Chinatown's old buildings have been renovated into art spaces, cool bars, cute cafes, and quaint shophouses, turning the once sleepy area into a vibrant, go-to nightlife zone. A five-minute walk from MRT Hua Lamphong is all it takes. If you haven't the time to check out the area, we've done it for you. We've gone as far as visiting a handful of places to get you started. And remember, the street is a neighbourhood with people who live and work there, so be sure to have fun but also respect the locals.

Looking ahead
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 05/01/2018
» 2017 was a whirlwind of a year, but we are now in the budding days of 2018 and while we realise most of us are still recovering from holiday feasting, it's time to leave the past behind and look ahead. There are a number of reasons to be excited about 2018, from concerts to (possible) developments in the city itself. To kick off our very first issue of the new year, we at Guru have compiled a list of things to look forward to in 2018. Strap yourselves in. It's gonna be one heck of a year.
