Hi! I’m Queenie Anne Gumiran, the storyteller behind The Queen’s Escape, a Philippine travel and diving blog that celebrates wanderlust, culture, and sustainability.

Through every post, I hope to inspire you to explore the Philippines meaningfully and fall in love with its underwater and island beauty, one escape at a time.
