Adventure TIME!

  • Weekend at Batangas!

    It’s so weird that I’ve been spending a lot of time on the road, traveling with the hubs. And it’s only July! I zipped by Batangas last week to visit my best friends’ family as well as attend tita Precy’s 60th birthday. It was a blast! It was my first time traveling without the hubs, Continue reading

  • Hello from Hong Kong Pt. 2

    Hello from Hong Kong Pt. 2

    Oh hai, just got back from chilly Hong Kong for a mini-moon!  After we landed in the mainland, we wasted no time seeing the sights, tasting the food, and of course, traveling to Disneyland. We stumbled upon a makeshift roadside resto in Nathan street, directly parallel to Nathan hotel. The place looked scary to be Continue reading

    Hello from Hong Kong! Pt. 1

    Hi from Hong Kong! We arrived at Hong Kong early in the morning and it was raining. The rain made me nervous because I have blu with me but thankfully, I had the foresight to waterproof her before the trip. The weather is pretty chilly but it’s all too similar to PH’s February cold season. Continue reading

    Weekend at Batangas

    It appears that 2017 is shaping up to be the year of wanderlust, we were all over Luzon the past few weeks and we’re up for more travels later this year. So my best friends got married in Ilocos two weeks ago and after the festivities, we decided to drop by Batangas for a sojourn. The Continue reading

  • Weekend in Ilocos

    Weekend in Ilocos

    I was in Ilocos Sur with the hubs to attend my bestfriends’ wedding. Since I was the matron of honor, I wasted no time getting shit done 😀 I did the bridal makeup, sorted the flowers, and made everyone’s corsage, lol. It was lovely ceremony, the experience was amazing and seeing my best guy friend Continue reading

  • The Honeymooners

    Like a proper Asian, I hate tanning and sun exposure, which is ironic considering how much I love going to the beach. Since I work at home, I spend as little time as I could outdoors and as you can imagine, I was blinding white by the time I made my triumphant return to Potipot Continue reading

  • A Quick Romp in Cebu

    I was in beautiful Cebu last weekend to unwind with the boyf and his office friends: The boyf and I were shocked at how much time we spent traveling from point A to point B. For instance, getting to our resort took almost five hours of driving. From the resort, the nearest beach is about Continue reading

  • Back at Marco Polo

    I’ve been meaning to write a post about my boyfriend and I’s birthday celebration but work is getting in the way, hahaha! So yes, we went back to Marco Polo Ortigas to celebrate our birthdays and it was fun. We also got twin cakes! We got upgraded to a premier room, which was cool and Continue reading

  • Winter in Tokyo Part 3: Eats and Shopping for Pasalubong

    Believe it or not, I didn’t come to Tokyo to shop, much more get a milestone purchase! For one thing, most of the things I wanted to buy in Tokyo are definitely out of my price range. Quite simply, most things in Tokyo are expensive, especially the food. So I expected that most of my Continue reading

  • Winter in Tokyo Part 2: Tsukiji Market

    Tsukiji market is Tokyo’s largest marketplace. It’s been featured in documentaries for its eye-popping array of seafood, including massive tunas. We went to the market on our third day in Tokyo and I was beside myself with excitement because I am a huge sushi lover. You see, apart from the usual goods and seafood, the Tsukiji Continue reading
