Rustles, whispers and muffled noises
The night can work wonders and when abroad, the chances of an encounter can be greater than being at home.
When the journey becomes the destination
Travel is not all about reaching the destination but making the journey the destination itself!
La entrada de Cebu es Hermosa… (Rizal, 1896)
Not too many Filipinos know it but the Philippine National Hero, Dr. Jose P. Rizal visited Cebu overnight during his sentimental journey, his last, from Dapitan to Manila in 1896. He was supposed to serve as a surgeon in the Cuban army but five months later, was gunned down at Bagumbayan.
Talisay: There’s nothing like home
The best lechon (roast pig) in the Philippines is found in Cebu. And the best one in Cebu is traditionally from Talisay City. Twelve kilometers south of Cebu City and facing the rising sun, it is where my roots are from. My hometown.
Why I prefer traveling solo
I travel solo because I like the freedom it entails. Solo helps me think, ponder and discover more of myself.
I want us to go back to Baguio
A bit of a cliche really, but Baguio City, with its cool weather, attractions and stuff has still so many things to offer couples who still believe in its magic to strengthen bonds.
