start ROAMing

A rip-roaring shout out to all kinds of travelers: the cheapskates, zillionaires, backpackers, adventure seekers, campers, lost, or whatever you feel like calling yourselves! ROAM magazine has finally landed our urban jungle! This magazine is for you!

October Eighty Publications proudly presents ROAM—the first and only alternative traveling magazine in the Philippines. Hop on the crazy world of fun, spontaneous, and adventurous traveling! Discover the hidden, learn the alternative, and live the ambiguity.

In this premiere issue, we give you the wild slab of glorious Manila we’ve all loved to hate, and hated to love. We revive the vintage and feel the vibe of hippie Manila. We veer away from what’s pop and grand; we drift, reroute, and experience Manila the ROAM way!

Revel our special features on the chronicled Intramuros, oddballs of Cubao X, rave of the Manila nightlife, rekindled balut industry in Pateros, and the legends of the Luneta photographers.

We’ve got a bevy of features on urban adventures, culture, food trips, dream destinations, city tours, first aid, traveling in style, and a lot more!

Come on, come on! Quit on slacking and start ROAMing!

ROAM magazine is available in the major bookstores and newsstands.
