  • Repair, Detox and Rejuvinate at The Life Extension Health and Wellness Center in Quezon City

    February 16, 2019 / 0 Comments

    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 lot of people have been engaged into working out indoors and outdoors, recreational and fitness activities and healthy diet. I have heard my friends talking about Keto and intermittent diet, enrolling into fitness programs, joining fun runs, taking supplements and more. It has become pretty ubiquitous that every people who’d see them doing it would also like to…

    November 1, 2018 / 0 Comments

    If there’s one thing that I’d always like to avoid as much as possible, it is actually commuting to and around Manila as it is quite stressful and suffocating. The traffic, the noise and the volume of people in every place is just too much for me.  But who would have thought that a piece of this urbanized place would make me experience zen? and yes, I found it in Balay Hilom Spa. Experience Zen in the City “Balay Hilom” was derived from a regional word ‘Balay‘ which means house and a Tagalog word ‘Hilom‘ which means heal. Thus, this gives us ‘House of Healing’.

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.
