Features

Sometimes 300 words are not enough. Coconuts Manila’s features section gives a closer and more intimate look into everyday life in Manila (and other parts of the Philippines), straight from the brains of our editors and contributing writers. We publish stories about different things such as intriguing subcultures, interesting advocacies, inspiring people, happenin’ trends and more. Here you’ll find our opinion section, where writers and editors rant and rave about the most controversial topics in town. This is the space for us to speak up about things that are driving us nuts. We want our think pieces to push our dearest readers to be well-informed about issues that matter. Most of the time, we think we make sense — but you may have a different opinion. We also have interviews and Q&As featuring the most interesting people from different parts of the country. We recently had a nice, long chat with a rope bondage artist, a plus-sized model, a writer, a musician and an art legend. We’re raring to interview more. Coconuts Manila’s writers have gone far and wide to get nothing less than the most interesting stories on your desktop, laptop, tablet, or cellphone. Our feature stories are told using the distinct Coconuts voice, which we are sure you've already learned love. Yes, we know you need your daily dose of quick Coconuts Manila news, but for those times when you want to go deeper into a uniquely Filipino topic, then click on the features tab and scroll down.
