This afternoon after a tiring day at work, I logged into my email, what a refreshing feeling to find an email from Park Hyatt Saigon:
Dear Nastassja,
We are excited about your arrival on 08 April 2009 ... blah blah blah...
I have 2 and a half days of work to go before I start my vacation a…

Rise and shine, a new day of mischief and mayhem.. haha j/k. Still a bit scary because I was about to stride into the city, a city that I didn't know would accept me or not. Granted I do understand the language, but being that I don't speak it fluently I've always been given the impress…

First, they stuffed up and had only one room ready for us.

La noche de Navidad llegamos a Manila. Poca fiesta y mucho ruido, ya que la tradición es que los niños se pasen toda la noche tirando petardos.
El 25 ya por la mañana nos fuimos a visitar Intramuros, que es una ciudadela amurallada construida en 1571 y prácticamente destuída durante la II Gue…

This is it -- the start of my two-week travel that I planned for a month! Well, actually, I was supposed to just come along with some TravBuddies who were planning a SEA trip in July to August -- a hassle-free trip for me, since they had already made an itinerary and all I had to do was j…

It's needless to say that Pinoy Travbuddies love meet ups so much. In fact, in the first quarter of the year, Manila meet ups became a monthly happening. Initiated by the first meetup in January, though a mini one with only eight people attended, it seemed endless when bigger meetups in Febru…

My time in the Philippines is running short, and it's time to go back to Manila. Like the first time, I wasn't doing much in this big city, with so many people going around.
I end up in a very nice hostel, that I do recommend for anyone going to Manila, and just had nice time in the next two days.…

Oh I missed my high school friends sooooo much! I have never seen most of them for three years already. But I'm glad I at least had some great time when I met up with some of them in Mall of Asia.
Sm Mall of Asia is in Manila and so far it's the 3rd largest mall in the world. Not really a big deal…

When I got up in the morning, I was surprised to find the
headache had completely gone and my friends were more than ready to show me
around Intramuros. Intramuros is part of the old Manila

First of all, this blog is not such a happy one, but want you to think what life is.
This trip is by a NGO,ACCE, based in Japan.
I and other friends visited Apelocruz, a slum area, and Tondo called smokey mountain which is a gabege area.

I was off to my usual weekend bike from my house to my father’s, that is if my lazy legs would allow me… and so about two weeks ago, I began the journey and I can say that I wasn’t off to a good start. …
