Dear Mr. KIA, I’ve been a massive fan of Jack Johnson for a while now. Sometimes I imagine him emerging from the ocean like Daniel Craig in James Bond, while I’m sunbathing and eating banana pancakes. So I’ve recently purchased a ukulele in hopes of playing his songs and posting...

Dear Mr. Know-It-All, I’m a black belt Taekwondo enthusiast and I would love to have a place where I can practice the sport. I’ve just moved to Hong Kong and I’m not particularly looking for a center that teaches, but rather, a place where I can practice with individuals that are...

Dear Mr. Know-It-All: I currently live in a rare serviced apartment in Bangkok that openly welcomes dogs. But I’m looking into buying a condo and everywhere I go they don’t allow pets. Basically, all real estate agents tell me the same thing. They keep suggesting that I should live in a...

Dear Mr. KIA, I need your help. Ever since my wife started watching Project Runway she’s been obsessed with getting her very own tailor’s dummy. She doesn’t want to design dresses or anything. She just wants to put it in the corner of our bedroom and hang crap on it. Even though I...

My sweetheart is a major foodie, and an extremely picky dessert snob to boot, which makes preparing the present for our looming one-year anniversary a ticking time bomb. I really want to wow him with a tasty treat to demonstrate...

Dear Mr. KIA, I have been trying to clear out my closet to make some space for the new autumn-winter collections. Thing is my flat is tiny and and I can’t find anywhere else to store my old clothes. I care for those outfits too much to just toss them in the trash. Do you know anywhere I can...

Dear Mr. KIA, have you noticed that Bangkok’s weather has been so strangely cold lately? So I’ve been thinking of getting myself a lot of winter wear. I really love those knitted sweaters and scarves I see the models wearing on the runway and it inspired me to learn how to knit my own...

Dear Mr. KIA, I have been dating my girlfriend for almost two years and next week is going to be our official anniversary. I forgot this important date last year and she was pretty mad, so I’d like to make it really special this time. I hear that girls currently have this thing for cutesy...
