Riding the wave of passion
Guru, Published on 25/03/2022
» Japanese surfer/photographer Ken Yashiro believes if you're happy with what you're doing, you're doing it right. It has been more than a decade since a country boy from a coastal village in Chiba, Japan, decided to move to Bangkok to pursue a career in an advertising agency. Yashiro is known by many in Thailand as a Japanese surfer and founder of "SurfAholic Thailand", an online surfing community. His surfing journey began in junior high school.
Fit and fun
Guru, Suthivas Tanphaibul, Published on 15/10/2021
» Since the government has eased restrictions for all sports venues in Bangkok, many are eager to get back on the fitness track. Besides the obvious go-to gyms, there are alternative venues where you can sweat it out with new activities. From climbing a (pseudo) cliff to aiming for baseball home runs, Guru presents a list of alternative sports venues that would make your comeback to a fitness routine even more exciting and challenging.
Songkran summertime
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 09/04/2021
» Summer is here and Songkran is around the corner so get your water guns ready because Bangkok is about to become an all-out water war zone! Wait, no water battles? For two consecutive years? Sadly, Songkran hasn't been the same since Rona came around and it seems like we have to wait yet another year to -- hopefully -- celebrate Songkran in the wet and wild way we're familiar with. But that doesn't mean your summer has to be a bummer or that Songkran has to be spent cooped up at home -- though we know it's certainly tempting since it's getting too dang hot outside. Here are some things you can do this Songkran summertime besides being sad that water fights aren't a thing again this year.
SURFSKATE'S UP!
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 12/03/2021
» If you have no idea what surfskating is, I don't blame you. I didn't really know much about it until I did this story, but there's a good chance you've seen someone riding it or carrying it around the city. These boards, which are shaped slightly different from skateboards, may perhaps be brushed off by a noob like me as a different form of skateboard but there's a little more to it than that. Whatever the case, the surfskate craze has for some reason descended upon the Land of Smiles and has tickled almost everyone's fancy. If you're someone who's looking to get into it or just someone who wants to figure out what the heck is going on, read on. Perhaps by the end of this, you'll find yourself wanting to surfskate yourself.

Malls have adorned their interiors and exteriors with lights, trees and colourful ornaments to get visitors into the holiday spirit. Visit these places to feel the festive mood.
Don't rain on my parade
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 03/07/2020
» It's a sad twist of fate that as quarantine restrictions have lifted, the rainy season is upon us. There may be many who want to get out and about, perhaps even the introverts like me may want just a tiny bit of socialising. But don't let the rain dampen your mood. If you and your friends want to hang out and have some fun, Guru's got a few fun spots even if it's raining cats and dogs.
