Home is where the hope is
Guru, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 15/01/2016

#FuneralTalk
Guru, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 29/01/2016
» My grandfather passed away when I was eight, and while I can’t remember much about his funeral, I remember thinking all of my aunties looked a bit odd without their usual make-up and hairdos. They told me they weren’t allowed to dress up while mourning.

Down to earth
Guru, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 29/01/2016
» There is something about having greenness in your home. No, we’re not talking about propping up your Christmas tree a few weeks a year. Green is one of the most soothing colours (more so when it’s on a traffic light) and, being in the centre of the spectrum, the colour of balance.

#FatherFigure
Guru, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 04/12/2015
» As a single mother, one of the most awkward holidays of the year is Father’s Day (it’s a close tie with Valentine’s Day).

Ad a glance -- 2015
Guru, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 18/12/2015
» We've seen some genius ads this year in Thailand. Thai Life Insurance's tear-jerking "Garbage Man" makes you want to hug the first street sweeper you see. "Every Mouthful is Meaningful" by CP makes you want to call your mother right that very moment. Thai ads also seem to be loved the world over -- even foreign websites have featured "Thai ads that make you cry" .

#Cheaters
Guru, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 18/12/2015
» Recently, newspapers in Thailand are all about one corruption scandal after another. It's as if politicians and authorities are holding their own, not-very-good-looking version of The Face Thailand -- dramas unfold every week, backs are stabbed and people are gotten rid of.
