» It can be argued that Phuket is a wellness retreat capital of sorts -- with many destinations offering spa and alternative therapies to choose from. There are no shortages of options on the island, but if you are ready to splurge, the latest top-of-the-line name to keep in mind right now is Asaya. Nestled at the recently opened Rosewood Phuket, this is the hotel's very first holistic wellness concept to be launched globally, with more branches to be rolled out at various Rosewood properties around the world.

» 1 Animal conservation is the hot topic of the town, and Jim Thompson is (unintentionally) getting involved in the fight. In buying their autumn/winter 2017 collection of scarves, specifically the Tiger Silk Jacquard Scarf (11,500 baht), you will be donating 5% (575 baht) of the price towards The World Wildlife Foundation. With a large dimension of 27 by 27 inches, the print of the powerful tiger has been expertly jacquard woven into 100% Jim Thompson silk. There are two colours available for this cause: gold/brown and silver/grey.
