Singapore

In my past visits to Singapore, I spent most of my time seeing the sites and shopping.

Working From Home

Traffic, high fuel costs, ride sharing shortages—we can’t blame you for wanting to just give up and stay in bed. There is a way though. If your work allows it, you can skip the long commute, the cold lunches, and pants. You can work from home.

Indoor Meets Leisure

People go out of their comfort zones for many reasons. Some wanted to take a breath of fresh air and see nature, while others just want to have a quick escape from their responsibilities. As a self-confessed introvert, and with the unpredictable climate that our country has, I always choose comfort over anything. When drizzle turns to a down pour, everyone has no choice but to stay safe within the confines of their home. Being resourceful is one of my special skills, and staying up in my room with my gadgets, installed with different online streaming apps and mobile games, while sipping a cup of coffee is the best way to keep myself entertained—and it could be yours too.

Looking For A Second Home

Moving up a rung on the ladder of education can be a daunting enough experience on its own, without having to worry about moving to a new place. Should your childhood home be too far away from school to be a practical daily commute, you’ll have to find a new place to hang your hat. There are a lot of factors to consider when picking your potential home for potentially your entire college stay, and some are less obvious than others. Let’s take a quick look at some of the things you might miss during the search.

In Pursuit Of School Gear

More often than not, a trip to the mall weeks before the new school year starts is a daunting experience. People are rushing in to get in line at the cashier, holding their baskets full of school supplies, shoes, and apparel. But apart from these school essentials, and the tuition that most parents prepare for in their annual budget, they also need to spend some extra money on gadgets that will help their child ace every subject.

2018 KTM 390 Duke

I’m sure I’m not the only one whose heart races when they’re in the saddle of a motorcycle. Whatever the displacement, motorcycles get you to your destination in the most enjoyable way possible. Once in a while though, we find a bike that’s so much fun to ride, we look for any excuse to mount up. The Duke 390 has quite the reputation of being one such bike, and I had the pleasure of using one for a week. Here are my thoughts.

Risk Of Rain 2

Risk of Rain, the breakout Rogue-like side-scrolling adventure romp of about five years ago is back, and it adds a whole new dimension to it, literally. Risk of Rain 2 is here, and has bust out of the walls of 2D to become a full-blown 3D shooter. Does it manage to bring depth to an already well-loved game, or does it, ironically, fall flat?

Subaru Forester Media Drive The Road Less Traveled

The Subaru Forester is a vehicle that is beloved by those who have had the pleasure of owning one. Since the first ones rolled off the line and into the hands of owners over three decades ago, Subaru’s superb boxer engine, wonderful driveability and exceptional comfort have won people over time and time again. The newest iteration of the Forester brings even more features to the market, and Motor Image Philippines gave a few members of the press the unique opportunity to drive it all the way to La Union, and over some terrain that most Subaru owners wouldn’t even dream of tackling.

TCL C2

In recent years, there has been a significant decline in TV consumption what with streaming services like Netflix becoming accessible to many through smartphones and high-speed internet connections. Though, at the end of the day, people would still find the idea of sitting back with their feet on the coffee table while enjoying some good ol’ TV viewing extra relaxing. Mix this familiar feeling with smart technologies so impeccably integrated into the television, you won’t ever want to leave home.

The Formula E Evolution

Putting passion for racing together with care for the environment

2,500- Kilometres With The Isuzu MU-X And Isuzu D-Max

We were about to set off from Manila to Dumaguete on a 10-day road trip with three motorcycles, and wrestled with which support vehicle would be the best option for our team. Initially, we thought taking along one van would do the trick, as it would carry all the gear for our group of four riders and four support staff. After much discussion, though, the group agreed that two vehicles—an SUV and a pick-up truck—would be the better combination. With two vehicles, the lead car could scout out the terrain, stop at vantage points for those Instagram-worthy photo-ops, as well as race on ahead to ensure space on the RoRo ferries for those crucial sea crossings.

Confidence No Matter The Destination

Confidence No Matter The Destination

Subaru Forester 2.0i-L

Generally speaking, our vehicles are capable of more than we put them through. While they’re perfectly happy going on the straight roads from our homes, to our offices, to the grocery store, when pushed, they can do amazing things. This holds even truer for Subaru’s Forester. A highly capable city vehicle, it’s capable of greater things that one might think. We got to take one out for a road trip well outside of the city limits to see what else the compact SUV is capable of.
