Mary Grace Cafe | Metro Manila, Philippines
After our road trip that ended up more like a whirlwind around, we reduced ourselves to simpler plans like recuperate before our very last day in the Philippines arrives… [Catanduanes & Luzon | Philippines October 2015] 16 & 17 October 2015 Mary Grace Cafe 16 October 2015 Woke up with only the friend and I…
Villa Escudero, Tagaytay & Taal Church | Luzon, Philippines
After spending the whole day settling down and resting after arriving from Catanduanes, we were all ready to hit the roads again! But little did we know that the moment we drove off from home, we will be on the roads for the rest of the day… [Catanduanes & Luzon | Philippines October 2015] 15…
Antipolo | Luzon, Philippines
I, for some reason, don’t have an issue getting out of bed early every time I am on a holiday. But I figured it might be because the sun rises much earlier in other parts of the world and my love for sun shine anonymously sets an alarm at those ungodly timing on my body…
Bato Church & Batalay Shrine | Catanduanes, Philippines

It was such a pity that all the fun and hype of the birthday fiesta simmered down when a big part of the family had to pack up and leave so that they are able to get back in time for work again in the new week. And with about less than half the people…
Twin Rock Beach Resort | Catanduanes, Philippines
Arriving at the island of Catanduanes… While traveling is primarily my way of taking a good break from everything I have on hand, I do enjoy traveling out just attend special occasions personally! And by far, I had only attended weddings overseas but this time round, a dear friend of mine invited me to join…
7 EATS in Iloilo | Iloilo, Philippines
I was really amused every time we were out on the roads. Aside from the many old yet elegant looking houses and churches that punctuates the streets, there is also more than one eatery, cafe or restaurant on the same street too! There is just too many things to try in this little food haven!…
