Tribe and Trek Zambales: An Adventure that Matters with the Yangil Tribe
When I started traveling, all I cared about was nothing but good photos of me and the scenic spots of the spectacular places that this world hold. I got nothing but a romantic and ‘touristy‘ outlook into going to places. However, my perspective shifted when the ugly truth hit me hard. If not seen on the news, I’d see for myself the alarming amount of trash particularly plastic in the ocean carried by the waves and current from the community nearby or from the tourists who intentionally left it at the shore, dead endangered sea creatures being washed ashore or found floating in the waters in the morning, closed trails…

Where Nature Meets Adventure: Mountain Lake Resort, Cavinti, Laguna
Wide spaces and fresh air are always my greatest breather. My heart and my mind are in an instant state of relief and decongestion from all the worries and anxiety as the vastitude takes it away from me. There is this freeing feeling in my core; sensing a tinge of giddiness in my bones, allowing frivolity in my life, absorbing every element in my soul – as I see the blue sky a canopy to a land covered in green that grows luxuriantly everywhere. I embrace everything in peace and silence – all these I felt the moment I set foot in Caliraya Spring Mountain Lake Resort. About Mountain Lake…

A Watermazing Summer Experience in Aqua Planet (Travel Guide + Review)
It was early in the morning but it sure felt like midday. We didn’t dare check the weather forecast for some monsoons prior to our trip as we have claimed that the sun will be up and brimming like it has always been every summer. With no decent sleep but with a hearty breakfast from my favorite fast food that set the mood for the day, we excitingly took the last P2P trip that was heading from Trinoma to Aqua Planet. Rewarded with comfort by the reclined well-cushioned seat in a fast air-conditioned bus, we drifted and surprisingly woke up at the driver’s call on the passengers who were supposed…

Sleep well, Pay Less: Experience Zen Rooms in Gramercy Residences in Century City, Makati
My friends and family know me well for not being a big fan of staycations. I just think that staying and sleeping in a hotel room in a city is not entirely different from staying at home. Further, I never lived for cities. I always got a feeling that the buildings and people are constantly squeezing me in making me feel suffocated and claustrophobic. Well, I am true sucker for some actions, beach, camping, ocean waves, free diving, forests and nature – anywhere near the waters and flora. But then, the frequent out of town has got me so tired and spending at the same time that I needed some…

Towards Sustainability: Be Eco-Friendly with Style!
Since the immemorial roots of our humanity, we have been consuming the boons that the earth have bestowed on us. Without being told nor taught, this consumption came with sustainability. Hence, sustainability has long been co-existing with the world itself. However, due to the rapid growth of population of the people, the world’s resources were devoured that the efforts of a few to save it become simply not enough. It is even more alarming as the people are not just softly killing the earth by consuming lavishly its natural resources but have also invaded and trespassed into the other creatures’ abodes which should have been left untouched. The sad reality…

Maxx Hotel: A New Business and Lifestyle Hotel in Makati
I am based in Tagaytay City but it is often that I get deals and projects at the Metro. Despite the countless times that I have traveled to the city, I have and will never get used to the hustle of it. The heavy traffic and jams, the amount of people that I get to encounter and walk with and the towering buildings make me feel claustrophobic and uncomfortable. The travel itself is also a challenge since I have to leave home at least three to four hours earlier than my appointment. Recently, I got tired by this and resorted to staying for a night somewhere and Maxx Hotel, I’d…

I spent the last day of my Cebu trip in Mactan Doctors’ Hospital!
We are currently in this age where people crave for an adventure to get away from life’s 24/7 hustle. When we log on to our social media accounts, a minute wouldn’t pass without you scrolling over a travel-related post from a friend or someone whom you follow. Their photos and videos would make you want to file a leave from your work or go on a road trip to paradise over the weekend. You can also overhear an office mate or a friend’s never ending hang over from their recent vacation. However, accidents, minor or major, come unexpectedly though not safe to say inevitable in these trips. As much as…

I hate Fantastic Chef’s Unlimited Korean Barbecue!
You read it right. I hate it. I hate that I made the right decision of taking my family to Malate to eat in here on a weekend because they are asking me to take them back. I hate that the restaurant is too far from home. I had to travel for hours only to experience their authentic Korean food. I hate that their meat tastes so good that it haunts me. I hate that its smell lingers on my shirt and my mind. I hate that it’s reasonably priced compared to other samgyupsal out there. It’s official: I have this love and hate relationship with Fantastic Chef’s unlimited Korean…
