I SURVIVED BATAD! Getting there can be extra tough (tried the jeepney top load for the first time & we need to trek for two hours since the Ifugao charmer is not passable by any vehicle), but reaching this destination is such a fulfilling one. Right after our late lunch at Simon’s Inn, the group decided to trek around Batad…
Commuting plays a major role in every traveler’s life. It is specially beneficial for those who don’t own a car or don’t really know how to drive (like me). Growing up, I didn’t really commute on a daily basis. I lived inside the school campus from elementary to college and I’d rather stay at home or hangout in nearby places…
For the the 10th time, I went back to Cebu to spend five spectacular days with young (and young at heart) travel bloggers fondly called as the PTB Bagets. It is a routine of mine to visit Cebu at least twice a year. If someone invites me to visit Cebu, It wouldn’t be hard for that person to convince me to…
The Banaue – Batad Trip is one of my travel goals for this year. My interest to visit Ifugao started when I had this one conversation with Dominic or most widely known as Dong Ho in the blogosphere. He is the blogger behind Escape Islands and most of his weekends are spent either trekking to different mountains or simply bumming…
“What is White Water Tubing?” I asked one of my blogger friends a day before our Sarangani Day Tour.

I need to search for it online, but then I thought i’d rather not know…
My overnight trip to Dagupan City last September 15-16, 2011 is a trip of many first. It is a quick one yet memorable due to the following reasons: My first time to visit Dagupan with longtime blogger friends Hannah, Fitz and Don. Hannah drives from Manila to Dagupan while my grandfather is at the backseat. Simon and Josh meets the…
The other day, a relative of mine whom I haven’t seen in years commented that she’s been checking my Facebook pictures. She is impressed that I managed to some parts of the Philippines in a short span of two years and that I am going out of the country every now and then. She is in her forties and I…
It’s been three months since I left United Kingdom. How fast time flies! It was just like yesterday when I reunited with my mom and brother, stepped in Europe for the first time, experienced my first White Christmas, loved milk tea, appreciate historical sites and explore the ‘Most Unique City in the World’ – LONDON! Like what i promised in…
“You feel like paradise and i need a vacation tonight” – Britney Spears, Hold it Against Me OVERNIGHT SA BORACAY? BITIN! I feel fortunate enough to be chosen as one of the bloggers to participate in the Smart LTE Testing in Boracay. Not only did I enjoy a free trip to a tourist destination – It’s Boracay, baby! My trip…
The sun is on my side and takes me for a ride I smile up to the sky, I know I’ll be alright -Pocketful of Sunshine, Natasha Bedingfield I remember my very first solo bus ride from Dagupan to Manila. My mom was scared for me and she feared that i might be robbed or something. She kept on reminding…
