Day Trip in Bali — Uluwatu

Day Trip in Bali — Uluwatu

When I was in Bali for the first time 7 years ago, I remember saying that it's nothing special and one's better off going to Boracay instead. I was obviously on some kind of meds for thinking that. I have taken back that statement since. I think Bali is amazing and is...

Trip of Wonders — Catch the Sunrise at Borobudur

I am really happy for the chance to visit Borobudur Temple again. The last time I was there in 2009, my camera (Canon G9) broke while inside the Borobudur Temple. I did get some photos but no decent selfies because there were no iPhone yet in 2009. I had to use a...

Traveling to Japan is more popular than ever. Japan has relaxed their visa giving process and it's now easier for Filipinos and other Southeast Asian national to enter Japan. I've been to Japan at least once a year since 2014. Philippine peso vs. Japan yen has fallen...

Day Trip from Bangkok — Hua Hin

I love Bangkok and have been there a few times over the past years but it can be intense. So if you're looking for a day trip or a short get-away to be with nature, head over the popular seaside escape of the residents of Bangkok and originally by the royalties. 200...

Day Trip from Bangkok — Samut Songkhram

I've been to Bangkok a few times before but haven't gotten out of the city much, except for one time my sisters and I went on a day trip to Ayutthaya in 2012. September this year, I had the pleasure to be invited by Thai Airways and the Tourism Authority of Thailand...

The Galapagos: The Dream Dive

The Galapagos: The Dream Dive

Diving the Galapagos had been a dream since the first time I saw a photo of school of hammerheads. Fueled with the high of diving Tubbataha in 2010, I tried organizing a group to dive Galapagos, negotiating deals for charter boat, but wasn’t successful.

Diving the Red Sea

Diving the Red Sea

One thing I know I will miss when I began this trip is scuba diving. And so I actually did a lot of diving before I left--taking part in the Philippine Dive Seafari and even joining the SNUPS photo competition, which by the way, I won something, yay. And because it is...

Wonder what to pack for a round the world trip for women? Certainly not 365 shirts. Here’s a list of what I brought with me and a video on how I stuff them all in a bag.

Acacia Resort and Dive Center

Acacia Resort and Dive Center

There are 3 destinations for SNUPS, right? Batangas, Cebu, and Dumaguete. My travel schedule only permits me to join the Batangas leg, which is absolutely fine because diving Anilao is at least top 3 destination for diving in the Philippines. My point being, because...
