    Talking heads

    Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 28/09/2018

    » In most countries, negativity towards mental health and depression still looms large, casting doubt and uncertainty for those who suffer from the common yet complicated mental illnesses to talk about it. "Crazy" or "insane" are words often used for such people, and because of the shame and stigma attached to mental health, it prevents most from seeking professional help. However, several groups and projects have been established to help gain a better understanding of what such people go through, and to raise awareness. Knowing what to say to someone who is depressed may be difficult, but these groups have provided a platform for those wanting to help and more so for those who need help.

    Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 05/10/2018

    » Thai-American athlete Amanda Carr has always been competitive in the realm of BMX cycling. Born in Punta Gorda, Florida, the 28-year-old cyclist took up the sport at the age of five, deciding to compete professionally at the age of 16. After racing for USA Cycling and attempting to qualify for the 2012 Olympic Games, she was approached by the Thai national team and decided to race with them. Carr had previously won the gold medal for the Women's BMX race category at the 2014 Asian Games held in Incheon, South Korea, as well as having competed in the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janiero, Brazil. She had recently competed and won the qualifier round in June for the Red Bull Pump Track World Championship in Aranyaprathet, where more than 70 riders competed for a spot in the finals. She is now set to compete in the finals on Oct 12 to be held in the US at the Jones Centre in Arkansas, representing Thailand in the hopes of bringing the gold back home and winning the championship title.

    The other Korean chicken

    Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 17/08/2018

    » When it comes to South Korean cuisine, a popular concept they are known for is "chimaek", which is the pairing of fried chicken and beer. As simple as that sounds, I wouldn't mind munching on some crispy fried chicken while washing it down with a nice, tall glass of beer after work.

    Sound hounds

    Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 24/08/2018

    » Bangkok's underground electronic music scene has been rapidly growing in recent years. There are various events focusing on different music genres which include house, disco, techno as well as the subgenres within, which there weren't as many a few years back. Western influences have changed the music landscape and conversely, Thai acts have begun to take inspiration from their style to apply on their craft. We chat with six Bangkok-based DJs and acts, artists who are putting in the sweat to expand and gain exposure in the underground music scene. These DJs have made a significant impact on the dance music community in recent years and Guru feels the need to give you, especially you who love the underground dance music scene, a proper introduction.

    Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 24/08/2018

    » Launched in March, Cocogo is an online food delivery service that specialises in healthy eating, focused on those who don't have the time to cook or go to a restaurant. However, Cocogo isn't your usual "order one quick meal on the go". They deliver a set meal plan consisting of two or three meals a day. That means you can depend on their service for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But how does it fare among other healthy food delivery services? For those who haven't started that diet plan for their new year resolutions, read on to find out.
