    Decathlon’s Easybreath Snorkeling Mask 2.0

    February 4, 2020 / 0 Comments

    Being the pioneer of full-face snorkeling mask, Decathlon’s brand for snorkeling and diving equipment, SUBEA, is yet to release this year their newest item and innovation – the Easybreath Surface Snorkeling Mask 2.0 that actually lets you communicate even at a distance without removing the mask!

    Decathlon’s SUBEA Neck Weight Review

    October 17, 2019 / 0 Comments

    One of the most important things I’ve learned during my Depth Training with Ocean Limits PH is to check your Neutral Buoyancy every time you dive. This means you are neutrally buoyant at ten meters – you neither go up or down when at the ten-meter marker. It is a must to check it every dive for safety reasons; especially to know if you should put on those weights or not. If you are neutrally buoyant or if you’re a sinker at the marker, you better lose the weights. During our depth training, I used a neck weight to maintain a good position and a smooth duck dive. However, It…

THE QUEEN’S ESCAPE

lady sipping juice from a paper cup

Hi! I am Queenie Anne Gumiran, the queen who escapes; a firm believer of the line, ‘we all deserve a little wanderlust‘. I started the Queen’s Escape travel blog to tell people a thousandfold stories about my motherland – that Philippines is more than just its pristine beaches and breathtaking summits. It aims to make the readers know about the best places to explore – both the world-renowned and the off the beaten path, how rich and diverse its culture is, how delectable the food is and more. More than these stories of wanders on a budget, The Queen’s Escape also tells stories of adventure on freediving and its advocacy, sustainable traveling.
