1. Ghostbird Coffee Co Malaysia Sabah Ranau  

This Sabarica coffee will provide you with a sweet, fruity cuppa with the tropical flavours being present thanks to the help of its anaerobic, natural processing.

2. Ana Tomy A3 Rucksack 

This is not a backpack, nor a crossbody, but something in between. Practical and playful, the water-repellant rucksack is designed to be carried in different ways. And it’s large enough to fit a 14-inch laptop.
