Q: Can you describe the city where you live and based?

I live in downtown called Bangkok, A big city with a terrible traffic Lol

Q: What kind of music is being popular right now where you’re based? I think all kind of music are quite seductive in their self but if I’ve to choose one as a popular now in my country. It might goes to Neo-soul, city pop, alternative and also hip-hop that can find more public favor nowadays.

Q: What did prompt you to start playing music? Flashing back when I was just a little girl, One of a thing that I can firstly recall was my mom, She really loves dancing and she do love jazz music. So I guess I’ve grown my interest in music since then. When my passion grew bigger. I decided to acquire a bachelor degree from college of music. During college year, Good and tough times comes but I’ve learned to deal with it by heart and passion. When I graduated from the college. I’ve been questioning to myself “Where and what I wanna be in this world” so I started to recall things and noticed that I wanted to be an artist. During my life time so far, I’ve been doing everything around the circle but so scared to do the core thing. Then, No more questioning and scaring. The only success will come once you’ve try. That’s why I’m here luckily!

Q: What aspect of your personality haven’t been changed since your childhood? Creative but forgetful hahahaha also being a big eater Lol I love this question!!

Q: Where do you get your inspiration from? For now, I only gain my inspo from myself and things that I’ve been encountered with. Because you can express something that you really really into it genuinely.

Q: Do you have any mentor? And why she or he is your mentor? Yes I have, My musician, my best friend and family is the mentor because they know my things so well Lol and They never scared to admonish me. Also being such a good motivation in my life;-)

Q: Do you have any social issues that you pay attention to recently? And why? Covid-19 is my big deal, My life has changed a lot. I feel trapped, Can’t play my set but tryna learn and deal with it. But when covid-19 is over I do hope playing my lil set there in Japan.(I really love Japan, I’ve been travel to Japan more than 3 times) Also the managing of the Thai government I must say because It linked with well-being as a Thai people. If you’re interested you can go read more of this:-)

Q: Do you have any fashion brands that you like? Beams, Zara, Uniqlo is the fashion brand that I love and wear it oft. Besides, I also enjoyed with purchasing 2nd hand stuff, It’s have like a story in it. 2nd hand stuff are pretty unique and rare for me and yes I really love dressing hahahaha.

Q: Any music genres that you are really into right now? Neo-soul, Alternative indie, Garage rock and Experimental

Q: How/what equipment/gadgets do you use to listen to music? (earphone, headphone etc)

I do love spearker so much, It can build more ambience but sometimes it’s not practical for some situation. Also using the airpods too.

Q: Please tell me a reason for your 3 recommend tracks for ‘MOOD NOW’? 1 Goodnight station - Yogee New Waves I’ve watched their live in Thailand 2 years ago and I feel so calm and warm listening to this song

2 Movie - Tom misch The meaning of this song is really hits me. I love the way Tom wrote it. Go super good with this autumn-winter night vibes.

3 Keep Cold - Numcha (It’s me hahahaha) This is my favorite track ever so I really want you guys go listen to it and share your moment with your loved ones.

Q: What kind of music are you creating now? It’s a hard question to answer ever hahahaha. I think it was picked up from “city pop” and mixed indie vibes but In each track, I do change all the element in my stuff. It depends on what I’ve felt and connected to each song so it can jump anywhere hahaha.

Q: Do you have any forthcoming release of music? See you in the end of October. I’m so excited for thisssss and also at the end of this year I’ll releasing some more festive thing Lol. Stay super tuned! (Nylon Japan, You’re the first one I tell xx)

Chantaboon Waterfront Community in Chanthaburi offers a much-welcomed reminder of life away from all those gadgets

IN THESE days of ever-more rapid information technology, the connections we have to places and people are at risk of being lost. An abundance of information is constantly popping up on our personal screens, telling us where to go, what to do and who to meet, resulting in a disassociation from the physical and psychological realities of daily life.

To reclaim some of what we have lost, my friends and I take a walk along Chantaboon Waterfront Community in Chanthaburi Province. Here, in the province’s oldest area, the Christian church, Chinese shrine, Buddhist temple and old houses lining the waterfront serve up a big dose of reality. A bowl of rice noodles topped with garlicky Mantis shrimp is, for me at least, way more real than the best photos of noodle dishes flying around the social media.

“Can I have two more bowls? Please. An army marches on its stomach,” Pla, my travel companion, asks the vendor even though our “army” will only be covering a few kilometres at most. 

In fact, the old waterfront of Chanthaburi River is barely a kilometre long, flowing north to south from Tha Luang Bridge to the Catholic Church. The right bank is lined with old wooden houses and timeworn European-style mansions. The left bank is home to the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception – Thailand’s largest Catholic Church. The cathedral, with its two towers, is visible from anywhere along the Chanthaburi River waterfront and much like a giant mother hen, guards her chicks on both sides of the river.

“The Chantaboon community, which was once clearly marked on nautical charts, was an important trading port,” says local guide Krit Phetchang. “It was a meeting point for Thais, Chinese and Vietnamese who traded and exchanged wild produce and spices. Chantaboon was also a strategic location for the French during the Franco-Siamese War of 1893.”

We stop at the church to admire the neo Gothic house of God. Built in 1909, the cathedral celebrated its centennial eight years ago. In fact, the Christianity arrived at the waterfront 300 years ago, when farmers and merchants started trading alongside the river. The present cathedral was built on the site of a chapel constructed in 1711. The chapel is huge and peaceful, and the stained-glass windows are impressive. The statue of the Virgin Mary at the front is decorated with more than 200,000 sapphires – a fitting link between the faith of the locals and city’s gem trade. 

From the cathedral, we cross the bridge to the right bank of the Chanthaburi River. 

Just as in Hoi An in Vietnam, Takua Pa in Thailand’s South and other ancient ports, the residents of Chanthaburi waterfront started trading peppers, scented woods, wildlife hides and rubber sheets with foreign merchants. Today, the one kilometre-long street still includes many private homes and the emerging art galleries, coffee shops and tasty snack stalls entice visitors over the weekends.

It is a place of contrasts too, with two very different types of architecture, both of them charming.

The first and the more lavish are the colonial style mansions owned by the royal servants with their sculpted clay ornaments. Then there are the wooden houses with intricate lace-like wooden facades favoured by the wealthy merchants. 

“People of Chanthaburi are recognised for their wealth,” notes the local guide. “The rich sent their children to study in Bangkok or Penang and George Town in Malaysia.

“Unfortunately, the younger generation abandoned their family homes along the waterfront and settled in other towns. Some of the old houses are rented out. Others have been sold off and still more have fallen into disrepair.”

Walking through the old Chantaboon waterfront is an act of discovery in itself. About midway along, surrounded by wooden house and timeworn mustard-coloured mansions, the visitor comes across a Chinese shrine. An open space – where motorcycle taxies wait for their clients – morphs into a “game centre” from time to time, as locals square off around a chess board. At the northern end, artists add colour to the timeworn buildings and walls with graffiti and stencils.

“The Chanthaburi waterfront is full of beautiful contradictions,” says Krit, our guide.

We couldn’t agree more. Original and wonderfully real, the Chantaboon waterfront is the perfect location to reconnect with place and people.

7 dead, 21 missing after SKorean tour boat sinks in Hungary

Rescue workers scoured the Danube River in downtown Budapest Thursday for 21 people missing after a sightseeing boat carrying South Korean tourists sank in a matter of seconds after colliding with a larger cruise ship during an evening downpour.

Seven people are confirmed dead and seven were rescued, all of them South Koreans, Hungarian officials said. Hungary’s Human Resources Minister Miklos Kasler said four of those rescued have been released from the hospital, while the remaining three are being treated in satisfactory condition. Police launched a criminal investigation into the incident.

The South Korea-based Very Good Tour agency, which organized the trip, said the boat — a 70-year-old vessel built in the former Soviet Union — had been on its way back after an hour-long night tour on Wednesday when the accident happened.

Nineteen South Koreans and two Hungarian crew members — the captain and his assistant — are missing. The tour party had consisted of 30 tourists, two guides and a photographer on a package tour of Europe.

The sunken boat was located early Thursday near the Margit Bridge, not far from the neo-Gothic Parliament building on the riverbank.

Video shown by Hungarian police showed the sightseeing boat, identified as the Hableany (Mermaid), traveling closely side by side and in the same direction as a German-built Viking cruise ship as they approached the bridge Wednesday night.

The Hableany then appeared to steer slightly to its left, into the path of the 135-meter (443-feet) long cruise ship, which continued to sail on at the same speed. The two collided and the sightseeing boat was then seen tipping on its side between the bridge’s two supports.

“As the Viking comes into contact with (the Hableany), it overturns it and in about seven seconds, as it turn on its side, it sinks,” Police Col. Adrian Pal said.

Pal said it’s unclear what caused the Hableany to steer into the path of the Viking. He said several people aboard the Hableany fell into the water after the collision. The South Korean government said none of those on board was wearing a life jacket.

Police said rescue operations were hampered by the rain and the fast flow of the rising Danube. The search for the 21 missing extended far downstream, even into Serbia, where the Danube goes after leaving Hungary.

The river, which is 450 meters (500 yards) wide at the point of the accident, was fast-flowing and rising as heavy rain continued in the city. Water temperatures were about 10 to 12 degrees Celsius (50-53 Fahrenheit).

Hajoregiszter.hu, a local ship-tracking website, lists the Hableany as having been built in 1949 in the former Soviet Union.

CCTV footage recorded on Wednesday night showed that the river was busy with boats of different sizes traveling in both directions.

Budapest has enjoyed a boom in overseas tourism in recent years. Long-haul flights from as far away as Dubai and Beijing increasingly fly visitors from Asia and the Middle East to the Hungarian capital, a relatively affordable but history-rich European destination.

Earlier, the news website Index.hu said one of those rescued was found near the Petofi Bridge, which is about 3 kilometers (2 miles) south of Parliament.

Police have questioned the Ukrainian captain of the Viking ship, but no details have been released. Authorities said both vessels’ captains are experienced, with many years of service with their companies. South Korean officials said the tourists were not wearing life jackets.

Relatives and a team of 25 official rescue workers were on their way from South Korea to Budapest Thursday. The team of fire, navy and coast guard workers includes some who had been involved in rescue operations for the 2014 South Korean ferry disaster that killed more than 300 people — one of the country’s worst maritime accidents.

Seoul’s presidential Blue House said President Moon Jae-in has called Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban to discuss rescue operations. Moon thanked Orban for the Hungarian government’s rescue efforts, and requested further support for efforts to find the missing, treat the survivors and recover bodies.

The Blue House said Orban told Moon that more than 200 divers and medical staff are involved in the rescue efforts and that officials are planning to locate and hoist the ship.

Employees from the South Korean Embassy in Budapest were assisting Hungarian officials in identifying those rescued and the deceased.

Budapest’s Disaster Management Office Chief Col Zsolt Gabor Palotai said the Hungarian army is setting up a pontoon near the capsized ship’s wreck and divers will go into the Danube from there.

The Very Good Tour agency said the tourists left South Korea on May 25 and were supposed to return June 1.

Most of them were family groups, and they included a 6-year-old girl. Her status wasn’t immediately clear but she didn’t appear on a list of survivors provided by the tour agency.

Senior agency official Lee Sang-moo disclosed the identities of the seven rescued South Koreans — six women and one man, aged between 31 and 66. The company is arranging for family members of the tourists to travel to Hungary as soon as possible.

The Hableany is described on the sightseeing company’s website as “one of the smallest members of the fleet.” It has two decks and a capacity for 60 people, or 45 for sightseeing cruises.

Mihaly Toth, a spokesman for the Panorama Deck boating company, said the Hableany was on a “routine city sightseeing trip” when the accident happened. He told state television that he had no information about any technical problems with the boat, which he said was serviced regularly.

The Margit Bridge connects the two halves of the city, Buda and Pest, with a large recreational island in the middle of the Danube. It is the bridge just north of the famous Chain Bridge, a suspension bridge originally built in the 19th century that, like the Parliament, is a major tourist draw in the heart of the city.

The river flows south, meaning that survivors were likely to be swept through the well-populated, historic part of the city.

Index.hu reported that other riverboats shined spotlights into the water to aid with the search, and that a film crew operating on the Liberty Bridge farther down the river directed its lighting equipment toward the Danube to assist. In recent years, Budapest has emerged as a popular destination for film, television and other commercial video production.
