As a blogger, I’ve always been passionate about exploring new adventures and sharing them with my readers. Recently, I embarked on a journey that introduced my family to the wonders of camping and led us to purchase a piece of land in the serene countryside. This decision has allowed us to fully embrace the world of camping and reconnect with the beauty of nature. Discovering the Allure of CampingCamping has always intrigued me, but only…
My family and I (finally) decided to travel to Siquijor after years of planning. ‘Drawing’ no more! Hahaha. Nestled in the Visayas region of the Philippines, Siquijor Island beckons travelers with its mystical charm and natural beauty. Known as the “Island of Fire” or “Isla del Fuego”, this enchanting destination offers a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. With its pristine beaches, lush forests, captivating waterfalls, and rich cultural heritage, Siquijor…
Right after Sinulog in Cebu City, my family and I had the chance to visit one of the famous resorts on Mactan Island. Upon searching for resorts that offer Day Use, we found Plantation Bay Resort and Spa more interesting. I remember I read online about the need for reservations, also, it was stated on their Facebook page that pre-payment is needed. We planned to visit that same day, so we only called if we…
Holiday Inn, an IHG hotel opened in Cebu City last June and offered a significant discount for their opening. I did score one reservation, and though I wanted it to be on my birthday, the promo date was only until the last day of August. Still, I booked for an overnight stay because why not. We really do not need a specific reason to stay in a hotel. The hotel is just a 5-minute walk…
It was a sunny Saturday. I woke up fine and as usual since the pandemic started. I did my daily routine, cooked food for my son, did the house chores, and watched Netflix. Until… 12 noon and I felt my heart was beating faster. Faster than I could feel the pounding on my chest. And in between that, it also skipped a beat. I physically felt fine but scared as I could ever be, I…
Covid-19 has put so many families waiting in vain. The feeling of emptiness when you realized that this is supposed to be the time when you get to hug and kiss your family, but you can’t. You can’t because you live far away from them. And the pandemic has put an even longer distance between you. The feeling that you are eagerly yearning for their embrace but just impossible. Just impossible, for now! Dear Survivor,…
I started blogging late of 2010. It was a compilation of the poems I wrote since college. I had it with the free platform first but decided to delete it after a year for some personal reasons. I, then, created another blog mid of 2012 and thought of it to focus solely on fashion and beauty. It ran smoothly and I had so much fun with it. But life as a blogger wasn’t all merry…
What are the things that keep me sane during the quarantine? A lot of people suffer from anxiety and depression when the pandemic started. Not being able to go out every time we need and not being able to do something that we want, made it worst. I, personally think, any time of the day I’ll go crazy if I can’t do anything. Lucky those who live in a big house where they can move…
