Be happy, irregardless,as suggested by the organizer and agreed upon by the lucky eight attendees, will be Cebu TB's motto, as we promised to promote travbuddyhood not only to TB members but to non-members as well. To affirm the motto, everybody says, "Aja! Aja!" (Go! Go! in Korean)Eight is my luck…

  Yes, this is Manila TBs 3rd meetup already! And yes, we have done it monthly (first two were Jan. 3 and Feb 7)!!   This was not actually planned, nor scheduled to be done regularly. Let's just say we Filipinos are so hospitable that we are all willing to partake in a group date wher…

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…

Okay yesterday I talked about beauty regarding the Taoist Temple - but I have to admit that today going to the Mactan Shrine I was a bit blown away again, with the whole setup the beach and the clear blue water. I had expected something along the line of the Manila version of the Lapu Lapu monument…

I just arrived from Manila and I got a call from Madam Aljun telling me hat he’s going to pick me up for a partay in his hometown, Kaputian in Island Garden City of Samal, otherwise known simply as IGaCoS. By 3 P.M., I heard a car’s beep outside & when I peeped, there he was, all …

I had a late arrival into Manila on the 16th and got to Kabayan Hotel just before midnight.  I woke up at 4am. Darn jet lag  I was bored, couldn't get an internet connection in my room and tired of watching some Korean tv show so I decided to slip a note under Yheleen's (bestblog) room.&n…

jovial setting + 2 guys + 2 girls + ice cold beers + red wine + ponkan + chips + dinner + video conference with a crazy woman = RIOT!

From the photos that I had seen, I knew that the Philippines is a beautiful country I would enjoy visiting. But I never imagined that I would be going there for my wedding! This blog is about our wedding trip and honeymoon in the Philippines.

Since yesterday, I've been looking online for hostels in Macau. However, due to laziness, I just went to hostelworld.com to look. But, everything in that website is fully-booked already. Until a few minutes ago, I was actually entertaining the possibility of sleeping in some park or walking around …

End of summer

It's big and chaotic but it's also fun. Manila is a city on a grand scale, actually the first big city I see in 3 months, but I got used to the 7 lane streets, crazy traffic, massive billboards and hundreds of fast food joints soon enough. The Filpino TB's are really active so it was great to hav…

After my last few days in Manila, I was so tired and charged in such an excited way that I was glad, to be going to Singapore. It would be true I had made some great friends who I would have to leave behind for now, but hanging around, not being able to do much with my new energy meant I was be…
