GEOGRAPHICAL
As a micro-guide, we zoom into what makes a particular place unique, choosing to tackle a smaller geographical scale. Our first issue, launched last June, focused on the city of Manila—celebrating its history, notable architecture, and neighborhood food and shopping favorites. We will soon release guides featuring other cities in Metro Manila such as Makati, San Juan, Pasig, Taguig, and will also venture outside the National Capitol Region.
THEMATIC
Apart from approaching it from a geographical standpoint, we also plan to create micro guides on specific themes, such as art and design, food, shopping, and more. We are releasing our first Art and Design guide in February 2014, in time for Art Fair Philippines and to complement ManilaFAME in March.
