The Queen’s Escape Almost Signed Off
I am someone who never wanted to be idle. In every waking hour of my life, I see to it that I’ll be productive because I have known myself as a goal-oriented person.

Presently, I am a full-time teacher, a part time graduate student and a travel blogger. I deal with a lot of deadlines and I loved beating them. I am quite active in all aspects of my being.

Repair, Detox and Rejuvinate at The Life Extension Health and Wellness Center in Quezon City
As time goes, our lifestyle changes. From the food we eat and the things that we do in a daily basis, things are never the same since day one. If there’s one thing that I’m glad about this progress, it’s the people’s growing awareness and concern about their health and wellness.

A Peaceful Sojourn in Camp Benjamin, Alfonso, Cavite
The first time that I set foot in Camp Benjamin was in 2010, when I was still in college and we had the Basic University Training in Lasallian Leadership. It was also some sort of team building and the venue was more than perfect for such an event. It was also the very first time I was introduced to ‘Glamping’ or glamorous camping. I was truly fascinated with how the tent was set up with mattresses, a small dining table for two or three persons and a small receiving area. We stayed in a pavilion type of convention area during our activities and we thought we had the whole place…

It is the time where I let go of all my stress, exhaustion and anxiety from my day job. I have various ways to celebrate my Friday nights. It’s either I hit the hay early for some good sleep or go out with friends and family to pig out (though it sounded more like I am stress eating). Most of the time, I choose the latter as I get to spend quality time over a …
