Guru, Suthivas Tanphaibul, Published on 17/10/2022
» Anantara Chiang Mai adds a luxury touch to the banks of the Ping River. Even though it has been around for 18 years, the property, formerly known as Chedi Chiang Mai, champions the time with contemporary, minimalist splendour designed by the late architect Kerry Hill. The riverfront sanctuary connects you to the true roots of the locality that was once the wood trading hub of the British Empire, whether it is the impressive teakwood exterior or the conservative colonial house that has been renovated to house a top-notch restaurant and bar, not to mention the giant tree on the lawn that has been providing shade for almost 200 years.

Camping cosmos

» T hailand has officially entered the cold season -- well, at least it's cold for those of us who live in the Kingdom. According to the Thai Meteorological Department, the "winter" (quotations as Thai "winter" isn't really winter at all) began on Nov 2 with the coldest days occurring in the latter half of December all the way until the end of January. For city-dwellers, it's predicted that we'll be enjoying the "extreme" minimum temperatures of around 15C to 16C, though we'll believe it when we feel it. However, the cold season signals the perfect time to take a camping trip especially up North where temperatures are expected to go as low as 6C or 7C. Brrrh. So unearth those fur coats and start buying camping gear for a cool road trip. Pun intended. It's time to go camping and Guru's got spots picked out for you.

Come fly with me
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 04/06/2021
» Among the many things that we've lost during this pandemic, the ability to get on a plane on a whim and fancy has been the biggest. If you've ever been to Suvarnabhumi International Airport in the past months to just walk around with a trolley to remind yourself what it feels like waiting for your flight (no? just me then?), then you'll know that the airport is a shadow of its former self. Even if you did manage to book a flight, it involves so much paperwork and costs so much, coupled with the fear of catching the virus, it's not worth it unless in an emergency.
