#FuneralTalk
Guru, 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.

Concrete jungle
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 05/09/2014
» Living in Bangkok is like eating a durian — you either love it or hate it, but it's usually smelly. There are those who are Bangkok-born and bred and those who have travelled thousands of miles to live in the so-called City of Angels (or #CityofSelfies, which seems more appropriate nowadays). Don't be fooled by the beautiful temples and overpopulation of 7-Elevens, as living here is not easy and it takes a lot more than an ability to eat spicy food and knowing the BTS map by heart to be called a Bangkokian. Here are some tell-tale signs that you have what it takes to survive the city.

To markets, To (Indie) markets
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 12/09/2014
» You would think Bangkokians have their shopping needs fulfilled to the brim already, given the ever-growing number of malls out there. To the contrary, there are many more special marketplaces that are popping up around the capital to offer different vibes and goodies. This weekend alone there will be two niche markets – Million Bike Market for bicyclists and Pet Design Fair for dog and cat people. We have decided to help you diversify your shopping experience with our pick of indie markets. We can’t be held responsible if you run out of cash before the end of the month, though.

The new Siam
Guru, Published on 18/07/2014
» During the political drama and mayhem earlier this year, we noticed that packs of thigh-high-skirt-wearing college girls and guys with too-cool-for-school haircuts had somehow migrated from Siam to other areas of the city. Now that “peace” has been restored (along with the awfully catchy patriotic song), Siam Square is back in better shape than ever with a brand new shopping mall and new hangout spots that have opened within the last six months. Get your folding fans out and layer on your SPF 50+ creams as we show you how to spend a day on the air-con-less side of Siam.
