Different strokes for different folks —
when it comes to
adventure, what might elicit a yawn from some might be the very definition
of excitement for others.
For our September issue, we tried to cover all our bases — spreading
our reach far and wide across our network — to bring together a collection
of features that's for everyone. Thrill-seeking kids and kids-at-heart, for
instance, will be happy to know what's happening and
new in the
region's top theme parks
(page 48).
Foodies will have a grand
time following a noodle trail around Asia as we showcase
well-loved
noodle dishes
from countries like Japan, Indonesia, Korea, China,
Singapore and Vietnam alongside our very own
(page 57).
City-slickers
looking for a challenge might be inclined to take on a veritable obstacle
course that Vietnamese locals go through every day in
Ho Chi Minh
City and Hanoi
(page 66).
Explorer-types will love the shores and
crystalline waters of far-off
Biliran
(page 88).
Fashion trendwatchers will
like our cover feature on
Filipiniana-inspired pieces
, set in the
heritage town of Taal, Batangas, where the past is still present
(page 74).
Plus, we take you through a farming season of the
Philippine
barako, our very own coffee bean variety
(page 82).
For those who love a rich brew, it will
get your heart racing, literally.
We wish you all an adventure-filled
month, wherever your search for a
rush takes you!
