Where to Stay in Sydney (2026)

The guide's spot on about Surry Hills being good for digital nomads, but I'd also shout out the cafes around Redfern, just a 10-minute walk away. Places like The Grounds of Alexandria are a bit furthe...

3 Days in Changde: Itinerary 2026

Bangkok

As an owner, how do you make management maintain the property?

I'm hesitant buying into Thai property because I do not understand the market in Thailand, and more specifically Bangkok - I've never lived in a city with so much empty property for instance. Parisian...

Tokyo

Clothing store employees approaching you: normal or odd?

Hey everyone, I have a weird question. I am an ordinary gaijin guy in his early 20's living in Tokyo since April. Today I visited a few shopping malls just for window shopping. Nothing fancy, and not...
